Acts 2:4-11 ▼

4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit was giving to them to declare forth.

5 Now there were Jews dwelling in Jerusalem, devout men from every nation under heaven.

6 Now this sound having happened, the multitude came together and was confounded, because each one was hearing them speaking in his own language.

7 And they were amazed and were marveling, saying, “Behold, are not all these who are speaking Galileans?

8 And how do we each hear our own language in which we were born?

9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites; and those inhabiting Mesopotamia, also Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,

10 both Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya that are around Cyrene; and those visiting from Rome,

11 both Jews and converts; Cretans and Arabs—we hear them speaking in our own tongues the great things of God!”
