Acts 2:1–29

And when the days of the Pentecost were accomplished, they were all together in one place:

²And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a mighty wind coming: and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.

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

⁴And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost: and they began to speak with divers tongues, according as the Holy Ghost gave them to speak.

⁵Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem, Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.

⁶And when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded in mind, because that every man heard them speak in his own tongue.

⁷And they were all amazed, and wondered, saying: Behold, are not all these that speak Galilean?

⁸And how have we heard, every man our own tongue wherein we were born?

⁹Parthians and Medes and Elamites and inhabitants of Mesopotamia, Judea, and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,

¹⁰Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome,

¹¹Jews also, and proselytes, Cretes, and Arabians: we have heard them speak in our own tongues the wonderful works of God.

¹²And they were all astonished, and wondered, saying one to another: What meaneth this?

¹³But others mocking, said: These men are full of new wine.

¹⁴But Peter standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and spoke to them: Ye men of Judea, and all you that dwell in Jerusalem, be this known to you and with your ears receive my words.

¹⁵For these are not drunk, as you suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day:

¹⁶But this is that which was spoken of by the prophet Joel:

¹⁷And it shall come to pass, in the last days, (saith the Lord), I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy: and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.

¹⁸And upon my servants indeed and upon my handmaids will I pour out in those days of my spirit: and they shall prophesy.

¹⁹And I will shew wonders in the heaven above, and signs on the earth beneath: blood and fire, and vapour of smoke.

²⁰The sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the great and manifest day of the Lord to come.

²¹And it shalt come to pass, that whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

²²Ye men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him, in the midst of you, as you also know:

²³This same being delivered up, by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, you by the hands of wicked men have crucified and slain.

²⁴Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the sorrows of hell, as it was impossible that he should be holden by it.

²⁵For David saith concerning him: I foresaw the Lord before my face: because he is at my right hand, that I may not be moved.

²⁶For this my heart hath been glad, and my tongue hath rejoiced: moreover my flesh also shall rest in hope.

²⁷Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell: nor suffer thy Holy One to see corruption.

²⁸Thou hast made known to me the ways of life: thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance.

²⁹Ye men, brethren, let me freely speak to you of the patriarch David: that he died and was buried; and his sepulchre is with us to this present day.
