13 But others in the crowd ridiculed them, saying, “They’re just drunk, that’s all!”
14 Then Peter stepped forward with the eleven other apostles and shouted to the crowd, “Listen carefully, all of you, fellow Jews and residents of Jerusalem! Make no mistake about this.

17 ‘In the last days,’ God says,‘I will pour out my Spirit upon all people.Your sons and daughters will prophesy.Your young men will see visions,and your old men will dream dreams.
18 In those days I will pour out my Spiriteven on my servants—men and women alike—and they will prophesy.
19 And I will cause wonders in the heavens aboveand signs on the earth below—blood and fire and clouds of smoke.
