Acts 2:1-7 ▼

1 When the day of Pentecost was being celebrated, all of them were together in one place.

2 Suddenly, a sound like the roar of a mighty windstorm came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting.

3 They saw tongues like flames of fire that separated, and one rested on each of them.

4 All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in foreign languages as the Spirit gave them that ability.

5 Now devout Jews from every nation on earth were living in Jerusalem.

6 When that sound came, a crowd quickly gathered, startled because each one heard the disciples speaking in his own language.

7 Stunned and amazed, they asked, |All of these people who are speaking are Galileans, aren't they?
