Acts 2:2-12

2 And suddenly there came from heaven a noise like a violent rushing wind, and it filled ¹the whole house where they were sitting.

3 And there appeared to them tongues as of fire distributing themselves, and they rested on each one of them.

4 And they were all ²filled with the Holy Spirit and began to ³speak with other tongues, as the Spirit was giving them utterance.

5 Now there were Jews living in Jerusalem, ⁴devout men from every nation under heaven.

6 And when ⁵this sound occurred, the crowd came together, and were bewildered because each one of them was hearing them speak in his own language.

7 ⁶They were amazed and astonished, saying, "Why, are not all these who are speaking ⁷Galileans?

8 "And how is it that we each hear them in our own language to which we were born?

9 "Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and ⁸Cappadocia, ⁹Pontus and ¹⁰Asia,

10 ¹¹Phrygia and ¹²Pamphylia, Egypt and the districts of Libya around ¹³Cyrene, and ¹⁴visitors from Rome, both Jews and ¹⁵proselytes,

11 Cretans and Arabs -we hear them in our own tongues speaking of the mighty deeds of God."

12 And ¹⁶they all continued in amazement and great perplexity, saying to one another, "What does this mean *?"
