Acts 2:1-11 ▼

1 And when the day of Pentecost was come, they were al with one accord in one place.

2 And suddenly there came a sounde from heauen, as of a russhing and mightie winde, and it filled all the house where they sate.

3 And there appeared vnto them clouen tongues, like fire, and it sate vpon eche of them.

4 And they were all filled with the holy Ghost, and began to speake with other tongues, as the Spirit gaue them vtterance.

5 And there were dwelling at Hierusalem Iewes, men that feared God, of euery nation vnder heauen.

6 Nowe when this was noised, the multitude came together and were astonied, because that euery man heard them speake his owne language.

7 And they wondered al, and marueiled, saying among themselues, Beholde, are not all these which speake, of Galile?

8 How then heare we euery man our owne language, wherein we were borne?

9 Parthians, and Medes, & Elamites, and the inhabitants of Mesopotamia, and of Iudea, and of Cappadocia, of Pontus, and Asia,

10 And of Phrygia, and Pamphylia, of Egypt, & of the partes of Libya, which is beside Cyrene, & strangers of Rome, and Iewes, & Proselytes,

11 Creetes, and Arabians: wee hearde them speake in our owne tongues the wonderful works of God.
