Acts 2:1-12

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

2 And suddenly there came from heaven a noise like a violent rushing wind, and it filled ²the 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 ³filled with the Holy Spirit and began to ⁴speak with other tongues, as the Spirit was giving them utterance.

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

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

7 ⁷They were amazed and astonished, saying, "Why, are not all these who are speaking ⁸Galileans?

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 ⁹Cappadocia, ¹⁰Pontus and ¹¹Asia,

10 ¹²Phrygia and ¹³Pamphylia, Egypt and the districts of Libya around ¹⁴Cyrene, and ¹⁵visitors from Rome, both Jews and ¹⁶proselytes,

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

12 And ¹⁷they all continued in amazement and great perplexity, saying to one another, "What does this mean *?"
