Context of Joel 2:24

22Do not be afraid, wild animals. The fields in the wilderness are becoming green. Fruit is growing on the trees. The fig tree and the vine are giving much fruit. 23Shout with joy, people in Zion! Be very happy because of the things that the Lord your God has done. He has given you just enough autumn rain. He has given you the winter rain, and the summer rain, as before. He will fill your stores with seeds to make bread. And he will fill your jars with new wine and oil. 25‘I will give you back the years that the locusts have eaten. I will give you all that the great locust and the young locust, and other locusts and their groups have eaten. All that my great army has eaten I will give you. 26You will have plenty to eat. You will be full. You will praise the name of the Lord your God. He has done great things for you. My people will never again be ashamed.
