Acts 2:4-13 ▼

4 They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak in other languages, as the Spirit enabled them to speak out.

5 Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout people from every nation under the sky.

6 When this sound was heard, the crowd came together, and were bewildered, because everyone heard them speaking in his own language.

7 They were all amazed and marveled, saying, |Look, are not all these who speak Galileans?

8 How do we hear, everyone in our own native language?

9 Parthians, Medes, Elamites, and people from Mesopotamia, Judea, Cappadocia, Pontus, Asia,

10 Phrygia, Pamphylia, Egypt, the parts of Libya around Cyrene, visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes,

11 Cretans and Arabians: we hear them speaking in our tongues the mighty works of God.|

12 They were all amazed, and were perplexed, saying one to another, |What does this mean?|

13 Others, mocking, said, |They are filled with new wine.|
