*
And suddenly a sound came from heaven like the rush of a mighty wind ,
and it filled all the house where they were sitting .
*
And there appeared to them tongues as of fire ,
distributed and resting on each one of them .
*
And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues ,
as the Spirit gave them utterance .
*
Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews ,
devout men from every nation under heaven .
*
And at this sound the multitude came together ,
and they were bewildered ,
because each one heard them speaking in his own language .
*
And they were amazed and wondered ,
saying , "
Are not all these who are speaking Galileans ?
*
And how is it that we hear ,
each of us in his own native language ?
*
Par '
thians and Medes and E '
lamites and residents of Mesopota '
mia ,
Judea and Cappado '
cia ,
Pontus and Asia ,
*
Phryg '
ia and Pamphyl '
ia ,
Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyre '
ne ,
and visitors from Rome ,
both Jews and proselytes ,
*
Cretans and Arabians ,
we hear them telling in our own tongues the mighty works of God ."
*
And all were amazed and perplexed ,
saying to one another , "
What does this mean ?"
