Acts 2:1-11

¹And when the day of Pentecost was now accomplishing, they were all together in one place.

²And there came suddenly a sound out of heaven as of a violent impetuous blowing, and filled all the house where they were sitting.

³And there appeared to them parted tongues, as of fire, and it sat upon each one of them.

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

⁵Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, pious men, from every nation of those under heaven.

⁶But the rumour of this having spread, the multitude came together and were confounded, because each one heard them speaking in his own dialect.

⁷And all were amazed and wondered, saying, Behold, are not all these who are speaking Galilaeans?

⁸and how do we hear them each in our own dialect in which we have been born,

⁹Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and those who inhabit Mesopotamia, and Judaea, and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,

¹⁰both Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the parts of Libya which adjoin Cyrene, and the Romans sojourning here, both Jews and proselytes,

¹¹Cretans and Arabians, we hear them speaking in our own tongues the great things of God?
