Acts 2:1-13 - Pentecost And The Coming Of The Holy Spirit

¹ And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all of one accord in the same place. ² And suddenly there was a sound from heaven as of a mighty, rushing wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. ³ And there appeared unto them divided tongues, as of fire, and it sat upon each one 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 Jews were dwelling at Jerusalem, devout men from every nation, of those under the heaven; ⁶ and this report prevailing, the multitude came together and was confounded, because they were hearing them speaking each one in his own dialect. ⁷ And they were all astounded and marveled, saying, Are not all these who are speaking, Galileans? ⁸ And how do we hear each one in our own dialect in which we were born, ⁹ Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and those inhabiting Mesopotamia, Judea, and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, ¹⁰ indeed Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the regions of Libya which is beyond Cyrene, and Roman sojourners, both Jews and proselytes, ¹¹ Cretans and Arabians, we hear them speaking the mighty works of God in our own languages. ¹² And all were astounded and bewildered, saying one to another, What does this wish to be? ¹³ And others mocking, continued to say, that these people are full of fermented wine.
