WPNT(i)
1 When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together with one purpose.
2 And suddenly a roar came out of the sky, like the rushing of a violent wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
3 Fiery tongues appeared and were distributed to them, and it [a tongue] landed on each one of them.
4 And they were all filled with Holy Spirit and began to speak different languages, as the Spirit was granting to them to speak out.
5 Now there were devout men, Jews, from every nation under heaven, dwelling in Jerusalem.
6 So when that roar occurred, the crowd came together, and was bewildered, because each one was hearing them speaking to him in his own dialect.
7 So they were amazed and marveled, saying to one another: “Hey, aren’t all these who are speaking Galileans?
8 So how can each of us be hearing our own dialect in which we were born?
9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites; those dwelling in Mesopotamia, in Judea and Cappadocia, in Pontus and Asia,
10 in Phrygia and Pamphylia, in Egypt and the parts of Libya adjoining Cyrene; and visitors from Rome—both Jews and proselytes—
11 Cretans and Arabians; we hear them declaring the great works of God in our own languages.”
12 Yes they were all amazed and perplexed, saying one to another, “Whatever is going on?”
13 But different ones were jeering, saying, “They are full of sweet wine!”
14 So Peter, standing with the eleven, raised his voice and proclaimed to them: “Men—Jews and all who are dwelling in Jerusalem—let this be known to you; indeed, listen to my speech!
15 Because these are not drunk, as you suppose (since it’s only the third hour of the day),
16 but this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel:
17 ‘It will be in the last days, says God: I will pour out from my Spirit upon all flesh; your sons and your daughters will prophesy; your young men will see visions; your old men will dream a dream.
18 In those days I will indeed pour out from my Spirit upon my male slaves and upon my female slaves, and they will prophesy.
19 I will show wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below: blood and fire and smoke vapor.
20 The sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into ‘blood’ before the great and glorious day of the LORD will come.
21 And it will be: whoever calls on the name of the LORD will be saved!’
