- 2:1And as the day of Pentecost was being fulfilled, they were all together in the same place.
- 2:2And suddenly there was a sound out of heaven, as of a rushing violent wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
- 2:3And there appeared to them tongues as of fire, which were distributed; and it sat on each one of them;
- 2:4And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in different tongues, even as the Spirit gave to them to speak forth.
- 2:5Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven.
- 2:6And when this sound occurred, the multitude came together and was confounded because each one heard them speaking in his own dialect.
- 2:7And they were amazed and marveled, saying, Behold, are not all these who are speaking Galileans?
- 2:8And how is it that we each hear them in our own dialect in which we were born?
- 2:9Parthians and Medes and Elamites and those dwelling in Mesopotamia, both in Judea and Cappadocia, in Pontus and Asia,
- 2:10Both in Phrygia and Pamphylia, in Egypt and the parts of Libya around Cyrene, and the sojourning of Rome, both Jews and proselytes,
- 2:11Cretans and Arabians, we hear them speaking in our tongues the magnificent works of God?
- 2:12And they were all amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, What does this mean?
- 2:13But others jeered and said, They are full of new wine!
