'In the last days, God says,
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your young men will see visions,
your old men will dream dreams.
What does this mean? Any way

His Spirit is the Holy Spirit, which comes to beleivers in fullness when they accept Jesus as Savior. The Holy Spirit gives peace to our hearts, guides our decisions and direction, and gives us a strong sense of God's presence and closeness.
Sons and daughters prophesy - some believers are given the gift of knowledge - where they discern what God has to say to individuals or to many people - a "prophecy".
The young and the old will have new and powerful hope in God, through Jesus Christ.
Blessings.

It means that god will pour his spirit on those who know him, remember he is a jealous, no strange god's before me, No graven images (man made idol;s etc), that in a 100 yr. old bible, I understand from a friend that the New testament has been changed over the last 20 years' or so

The apostle Peter at Pentecost quoted the prophecy of Joel 2:28 (RS): “I will pour out my spirit on all flesh,” and applied it to what took place there. However, we note that God’s spirit was not poured out literally upon all flesh at that time. But it was poured out on ‘all sorts of flesh,’ that is, on not just a select few as in times past but on sons and daughters and men- and women-servants. And so the New World Translation reads that the spirit was poured out “on every sort of flesh,” which obviously is what is meant.—Acts 2:17, 18.

It's a play with words. It simply describes the situation and exchange of ideas now at R&S.

It means God is talking but no one is listening.
Maybe it's time to listen?

Its a contemplative sonnet. Its meant to invoke thought not define it.
