⁴⁴ While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all them that heard the word.

⁴⁵ And they of the circumcision that believed were amazed, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Spirit.

⁴⁶ For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,

⁴⁷ Can any man forbid the water, that these should not be baptized, who have received the Holy Spirit as well as we?

⁴² God commanded us to preach to the people and tell them that Jesus is the one whom he has appointed to judge everyone some day. He will judge all those who will still be living and all those who will have died by that time .

⁴³ All of the prophets who wrote about the Messiah long ago told people about him. They wrote that if people believe in the Messiah MTY, God would forgive them for their sins, because of what the Messiah would do for them.”

⁴⁴ While Peter was still speaking those words, suddenly the Holy Spirit ◄came down on/began to control► all those non-Jewish people who were listening to the message.

⁴⁵ The Jewish believers who had come with Peter from Joppa were amazed that God had generously given the Holy Spirit to the non-Jewish people, too.

⁴⁶ The Jewish believers knew that God had done that because they were hearing those people speaking languages MTY that they had not learned and telling how great God is.

⁴⁷ Then Peter said to the other Jewish believers who were there, “ God has given them the Holy Spirit just like he gave him to us Jewish believers, so ◄surely all of you would agree that we(exc) should baptize these people!/would any of you forbid that these people should be baptized?► RHQ”

⁴⁸ Then Peter told those non-Jewish people that they should be baptized to show that they had believed MTY in the Lord Jesus Christ. So they baptized all of them. After they were baptized, they requested that Peter stay with them several days. So Peter and the other Jewish believers did that.

⁴⁵ Those converts from Judaism, who had come with Peter, were amazed that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been bestowed even on the Gentiles;

⁴⁶ for they heard them speaking in different languages and extolling God. At this Peter asked,

⁴⁷ “Can anyone refuse the water for the baptism of these people, now that they have received the Holy Spirit as we did ourselves?”

⁴³ You see, a long time ago God sent his men to tell his messages, and they all talked about Jesus. They said that if anyone believes in him, God will not blame them for the wrong things they did.”

⁴⁴ While Peter was still talking, the Holy Spirit came down and went into all the people that were listening to him.

⁴⁵ Peter’s mob there were Jewish Christians, and they were surprised to see God give his Holy Spirit freely to people that were not Jews.

⁴⁶ You see, they heard that mob talk in different languages and say that God is great, so they knew that God gave them his spirit. Then Peter said,

⁴⁷ “God gave the Holy Spirit to these people too, just like he gave him to us. Now nobody can stop us from baptising them in water, can they?”

⁴⁸ So he told the Christians there, “Baptise them, to show that they follow Jesus, the one God sent to save people.” Then those people asked Peter to stay with them for a few more days.
