Joel
Joel 2:23–24
23Be glad, O children of Zion,
and rejoice in the LORD your God,
for He has given you the autumn rains
for your vindication.
He sends you showers,
both autumn and spring rains, as before.
24The threshing floors will be full of grain,
and the vats will overflow with new wine and oil.
