Joel 2:31 in Context — Joel 2
29 Même sur les serviteurs et sur les servantes, Dans ces jours-là, je répandrai mon esprit.
30 Je ferai paraître des prodiges dans les cieux et sur la terre, Du sang, du feu, et des colonnes de fumée;
31 Le soleil se changera en ténèbres, Et la lune en sang, Avant l’arrivée du jour de l’Éternel, De ce jour grand et terrible.
32 Alors quiconque invoquera le nom de l’Éternel sera sauvé; Le salut sera sur la montagne de Sion et à Jérusalem, Comme a dit l’Éternel, Et parmi les réchappés que l’Éternel appellera.
