Acts 2:1-15

The Coming of the Holy Spirit

1 When ^athe day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. 2 And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like ^ba mighty rushing wind, and ^cit filled the entire house where they were sitting. 3 And divided tongues ^das of fire appeared to them and rested ^{▼▼Or And tongues as of fire appeared to them, distributed among them, and rested} on each one of them. 4 And they were all ^ffilled with the Holy Spirit and began ^gto speak in other tongues ^has the Spirit gave them utterance.

5 Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men from every nation under heaven. 6 And ⁱat this sound the multitude came together, and they were bewildered, because each one was hearing them speak in his own language. 7 And ^jthey were amazed and astonished, saying, “Are not all these who are speaking ^kGalileans? 8 And how is it that we hear, each of us in his own native language? 9 Parthians and ^lMedes and ^mElamites and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, 10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, 11 both Jews and ⁿproselytes, Cretans and Arabians—we hear them telling in our own tongues the mighty works of God.” 12 And ^oall were amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, “What does this mean?” 13 But others ^pmocking said, “They are filled with new wine.”

Peter’s Sermon at Pentecost

14 But Peter, standing with the eleven, lifted up his voice and addressed them: “Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give ear to my words. 15 For these people are not drunk, as you suppose, ^qsince it is only the third hour of the day. ^{▼▼That is, 9 a.m.}
