Acts 2:7-13

⁷They said, “These men are from Galilee,

⁸so how come we can hear them talking in our own languages?

⁹Some of us were born Jews and some of us became Jews later. We are from a lot of different countries, and we can hear them talking the languages of these countries. Some of us are from Parthia, and some from Media, and some from Elam, and some from Mesopotamia, and some from Judea, and some from Cappadocia, and some from Pontus, and some from Asia, and some from Phrygia, and some from Pamphylia, and some from Egypt, and some from places in Libya near Cyrene, and some of us are from Crete, and some of us are from Arabia, and some of us are visiting from Rome. But all of us can hear these people talking in our own languages. They are talking about the wonderful things that God does.”

¹²Those people were shocked and they didn’t understand. They asked each other, “What does this mean?”

¹³But some people laughed and made fun of Jesus’s followers. They said, “That mob are drunk. They drank too much sweet wine.”
