Acts 2:1-11

1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come , they were all with one accord in one place.

2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting .

3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance .

5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.

6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together , and were confounded , because that every man heard them speak in his own language.

7 And they were all amazed and marvelled , saying one to another *, Behold , are not all these which speak Galilaeans?

8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born ?

9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,

10 Phrygia, and * Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome *, Jews and * proselytes,

11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.
