Worrell(i)
1 And, when the day of Pentecost was being fulfilled they were all together in one place;
2 and suddenly there came out of Heaven a sound, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
3 And there appeared to them tongues, as of fire, distributed among them; and it sat upon each one of them.
4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, even as the Spirit was giving them to declare.
5 Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven;
6 and, when this sound was heard, the multitude came together, and were greatly surprised, because each one heard them speaking in his own language.
7 And they were amazed, and wondered, saying, "Behold, are not all these who are speaking Galilaeans?
8 And how do we hear, each in our own language in which we were born;
9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, in Judaea, and also Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the parts of Lybia about Cyrene, and sojourners from Rome, both Jews and proselytes,
11 Cretans, and Arabians—we hear them speaking in our own languages the wonderful works of God?"
12 And they were all amazed, and perplexed, saying one to another, "What does this mean?"
13 And others, mocking, said, "They have been filled with new wine!"
14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and declared to them, "Men of Judaea, and all those dwelling in Jerusalem, be this known to you, and give ear to my words;
15 for these are not drunken, as ye suppose, for it is the third hour of the day;
16 but this is that which was spoken through the prophet Joel:
17 'And it shall be in the last days', saith God, '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;
18 yea, and on My servants and on My handmaidens in those days will I pour out of My Spirit, and they shall prophesy.
19 And I will show wonders in the heaven above, and signs upon the earth beneath—blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke.
20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come.
21 And it shall be, that every one who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.'
22 "Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus, the Nazarene, a man accredited from God to you by miracles, and wonders, and signs, which God did through Him in the midst of you, even as ye yourselves know;
23 This Man, delivered up by the settled counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye, having fastened to the cross, through the hand of lawless ones, did slay:
24 Whom God raised up, having loosed the pangs of death; because it was not possible that He should be held by it.
25 For David says concerning Him, 'I beheld the Lord in my presence continually; because He is on my right hand, that I should not be moved.
26 Therefore, my heart was glad, and my tongue greatly rejoiced; moreover my flesh also shall abide in hope:
27 because Thou wilt not leave My soul behind unto Hades; neither wilt Thou give Thy Holy One to see corruption.
28 Thou didst make known to Me the ways of life; Thou wilt make Me full of gladness with Thy presence.'
