Acts 2:1-28 And at the fulfillment of the day of Pentecost they were all alike in the same place.

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And at the fulfillment of the day of Pentecost they were all alike in the same place. ² And suddenly there came out of heaven a blare, even as of a violent, carrying blast, and it fills the whole house where they were sitting." ³ And seen by them were dividing tongues as if of fire, and one is seated on each one of them." ⁴ And they are all filled with holy spirit, and they begin to speak in different languages, according as the spirit gave them to declaim." ⁵ Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem, Jews, pious men from every nation under heaven." ⁶ Now when this sound occurs, the multitude came together and was confused, for each one hears them speaking in his own vernacular." ⁷ Now they are all amazed, and marveled, saying, "Lo! are not all these who are speaking, Galileans? ⁸ And how are we hearing, each in our own vernacular in which we were born? ⁹ Parthians and Medes and Elamites and those dwelling in Mesopotamia, Judea, as well as Cappadocia, Pontus, and the province of Asia, ¹⁰ Phrygia, Pamphylia, Egypt, and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and the repatriated Romans, both Jews and proselytes, ¹¹ Cretans and Arabs - we are hearing them speaking in these languages of ours of the great things of God!" ¹² Now, amazed are they all, and they were bewildered, saying one to another, "What is this wanting to be? ¹³ Yet other, taunting, said that "With sweet wine are they bloated!" ¹⁴ Now Peter, standing with the eleven, lifts up his voice and declaims to them: "Men! Jews! and all who are dwelling at Jerusalem! Let this be known to you, and give ear to my declarations, ¹⁵ for these are not drunk, as you take it, for it is the third hour of the day." ¹⁶ But this is that which has been declared through the prophet Joel: ¹⁷ And it shall be in the last days,' (God is saying) 'I shall be pouring out from My spirit on all flesh, And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, And your youths visions shall be seeing, And your elders dreams shall be dreaming, ¹⁸ And surely on My men slaves and on My women slaves in those days shall I be pouring out from My spirit,' and they shall be prophesying." ¹⁹ And I will give miracles in heaven above, And signs on the earth below, Blood and fire and vapor pillars of smoke, ²⁰ The sun shall be converted into darkness And the moon into blood Ere the coming of the day of the Lord, The great and advent day." ²¹ And it shall be that everyone, whosoever should be invoking the name of the Lord, shall be saved.'" ²² Men! Israelites! Hear these words: Jesus, the Nazarene, a Man demonstrated to be from God for you by powerful deeds and miracles and signs, which God does through Him in the midst of you, according as you yourselves are aware -" ²³ This One, given up in the specific counsel and foreknowledge of God, you, gibbeting by the hand of the lawless, assassinate, ²⁴ Whom God raises, loosing the pangs of death, forasmuch as it was not possible for Him to be held by it." ²⁵ For David is saying to Him, I saw the Lord before me continually, Seeing that He is at my right hand, that I may not be shaken." ²⁶ Therefore gladdened was my heart, And exultant my tongue. Now, still my flesh also shall be tenting in expectation, ²⁷ For Thou wilt not be forsaking my soul in the unseen, Nor wilt Thou be giving Thy Benign One to be acquainted with decay." ²⁸ Thou makest known to me the paths of life. Thou wilt be filling me with gladness with Thy face.'
