The Coming of the Holy Spirit

1 When ¹the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place.

2 And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like ²a mighty rushing wind, and ³it filled the entire house where they were sitting.

3 And divided tongues ⁴as of fire appeared to them and rested^[a] on each one of them.

4 And they were all ⁵filled with the Holy Spirit and began ⁶to speak in other tongues ⁷as the Spirit gave them utterance.
