1 SO when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with unanimity assembled together. 2 And there came suddenly from heaven a sound as it were of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. 3 And there was an appearance to them of divided tongues, as of fire, and it rested on every one of them. 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them power to express themselves. 5 Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem, Jews, men of piety, from every nation under heaven. 6 And when this report spread, the multitude collected around them, and were overwhelmed with astonishment, because they heard them speaking every one in his own peculiar dialect. 7 And they were all amazed, and wondered, saying one to another, Are not all these who are speaking Galileans? 8 And how do we hear every man in our own peculiar dialect, in which from our birth we were brought up?
