Acts 2

1. And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, were they all with one accord in one place?
2. And suddenly did there come a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and did it fill all the house where they were sitting?
3. And did there appear unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and did it sit upon each of them?
4. And were they all filled with the Holy Ghost, and begin to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance?
5. And were there dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven?
6. Now when was this noised abroad? Did the multitude come together, and were they confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language?
7. And were they all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?
8. And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?
9. Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia?
10. Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes?
11. Cretes and Arabians, do we hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God?
12. And were they all amazed, and were they in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?
13. Did others mocking say, These men are full of new wine.?
14. But did Peter, standing up with the eleven, lift up his voice, and say unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words?
15. For are these not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day?
16. But is this that which was spoken by the prophet Joel?
17. And shall it come to pass in the last days, saith God, will I pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and shall your sons and your daughters prophesy, and shall your young men see visions, and shall your old men dream dreams?
18. And on my servants and on my handmaidens will I pour out in those days of my Spirit; and shall they shall prophesy?
19. And will I shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke?
20. Shall the sun be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come?
21. And shall it come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved?
22. Men of Israel, hear ye these words? Is Jesus of Nazareth a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know?
23. Being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, have ye taken him, and by wicked hands have ye crucified and slain?
24. Is he whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it?
25. For did David speak concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved?
26. Therefore did my heart rejoice, and was my tongue glad? moreover also shall my flesh rest in hope?
27. Because wilt thou not leave my soul in hell? neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption?
28. Hhast thou made known to me the ways of life? shalt thou make me full of joy with thy countenance?
29. Men and brethren, may I freely speak unto you of the patriarch David? Is he both dead and buried, and is his sepulchre with us unto this day?
30. Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne?
31. Did he seeing this before speak of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption?
32. This Jesus did God raise up, whereof we all are witnesses?
33. Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, hath he shed forth this, which ye now see and hear?
34. For is David not ascended into the heavens: but did he say himself, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
35. Until I make thy foes thy footstool?
36. Therefore let all the house of Israel ask assuredly, hath God made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ?
37. Now when they heard this, were they pricked in their heart? and did they say unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?
38. Then did Peter say unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost?
39. For is the promise unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call?
40. And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation?
41. Then were they that gladly received his word baptized? and the same day were there added unto them about three thousand souls?
42. And did they continue stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers?
43. And did fear come upon every soul? and were many wonders and signs done by the apostles?
44. And were all that believed together, and did all have things common?
45. And did they sell their possessions and goods, and part them to all men, as every man had need?
46. And did they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart?
47. Did they praise God, and have favour with all the people? And did the Lord add to the church daily such as should be saved?
