Acts 2: 1 - 11
|
| 1
|
When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place.
|
| 2
|
And suddenly a sound came from heaven like the rush of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
|
| 3
|
And there appeared to them tongues as of fire, distributed and resting on each one of them.
|
| 4
|
And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
|
| 5
|
Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men from every nation under heaven.
|
| 6
|
And at this sound the multitude came together, and they were bewildered, because each one heard them speaking in his own language.
|
| 7
|
And they were amazed and wondered, saying, "Are not all these who are speaking Galileans?
|
| 8
|
And how is it that we hear, each of us in his own native language?
|
| 9
|
Par'thians and Medes and E'lamites and residents of Mesopota'mia, Judea and Cappado'cia, Pontus and Asia,
|
| 10
|
Phryg'ia and Pamphyl'ia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyre'ne, and visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes,
|
| 11
|
Cretans and Arabians, we hear them telling in our own tongues the mighty works of God."
