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 met together with one accord. 2 And suddenly there was a sound from heaven as of a strong rushing wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. 3 And there appeared unto them divided tongues, as it were of fire, and it sat upon each of them: 4 and they were all filled with the holy Spirit, and began to speak in other languages, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

5 Now there were at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven. 6 And when this rumor was spread, the multitude came together and were astonished; for every one heard them speaking in his own language. 7 And they were all amazed and wondered, saying to one another, Behold, are not all these, that are speaking, Galileans? 8 and how do we every one hear them in our own native tongue? 9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and those that dwell in Mesopotamia, and Judea, and Capadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, 10 Egypt and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers from Rome, Jews and proselytes, 11 Cretans and Arabians, we hear them speaking in our own tongues the wonderful works of God. 12 And they were all amazed and in doubt, saying one to another, What can this mean? 13 but others scoffing said, they are full of sweet wine.
