Joel 2:26
Compare all
24 The threshing floors shall be full of wheat,
And the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil.
25 “So I will restore to you the years athat the swarming locust has eaten,
The crawling locust,
The consuming locust,
And the chewing locust,
My great army which I sent among you. 
26 You shall aeat in plenty and be satisfied,
And praise the name of the Lord your God,
Who has dealt wondrously with you;
And My people shall never be put to bshame. 
27 Then you shall know that I am ain the midst of Israel:
bI am the Lord your God
And there is no other.
My people shall never be put to shame. 

God’s Spirit Poured Out

28 “Anda it shall come to pass afterward
That bI will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;
cYour sons and your ddaughters shall prophesy,
Your old men shall dream dreams,
Your young men shall see visions. 
29 And also on My amenservants and on My maidservants
I will pour out My Spirit in those days.

Joel 2:26

And ye shall eat in plenty and be satisfied - It is of the punishment of God, when people eat and are not satisfied (see Hosea 4:10); it is man' s sin, that they are satisfied, and do not to praise God, but the more forget Him Hosea 13:6. And so God' s blessings become a curse to him. God promises to restore His gifts, and to give grace withal, that they should own and thank Him.

Who hath dealt wondrously with you - " First, wonderfully He afflicted and chastened them, and then gave them wonderful abundance of all things, and very great and miraculous consolation after vehement tribulution, so that they might truly say, This is the change of the Right Hand of the Most High."

And My people shall never be ashamed - o : "So that they persevere in His service. Although he incur temporal confusion, yet this shall not last for ever, but the people of the predestinate, penitent, and patient in adversity, will be saved forever."
