Acts|2:1|-|And as the day of |1a|Pentecost was being fulfilled, they were all together in the same place.
Acts|2:2|-|And suddenly there was a sound out of heaven, as of a rushing violent |1a|wind, and it |2b|filled the whole house where they were sitting.
Acts|2:3|-|And there appeared to them |1|tongues as of |2|fire, which were distributed; and it |3|sat on each one of them;
Acts|2:4|-|And they were |1|all |2|filled with the Holy Spirit and began to |a|speak in different |3b|tongues, even as the |c|Spirit gave to them to |4|speak forth.
Acts|2:5|-|Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem |1|Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven.
Acts|2:6|-|And when this sound occurred, the multitude came together and was confounded because each one heard them |a|speaking in his own dialect.
Acts|2:7|-|And they were |a|amazed and marveled, saying, Behold, are not all these who are speaking |b|Galileans?
Acts|2:8|-|And how is it that we each hear them in our own dialect in which we were born?
Acts|2:9|-|Parthians and |a|Medes and |b|Elamites and those dwelling in |c|Mesopotamia, both in Judea and |d|Cappadocia, in |e|Pontus and |f|Asia,
Acts|2:10|-|Both in |a|Phrygia and |b|Pamphylia, in |c|Egypt and the parts of |d|Libya around |e|Cyrene, and the sojourning of Rome, both Jews and |1|proselytes,
Acts|2:11|-||a|Cretans and |b|Arabians, we hear them speaking in our |1|tongues the magnificent works of God?
Acts|2:12|-|And they were all |a|amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, What does this mean?
Acts|2:13|-|But others |a|jeered and said, They are full of |1|new wine!
Acts|2:14|-|But Peter, standing with the |1|eleven, lifted up his voice and spoke forth to them: |2|Men of Judea, and all who are dwelling in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give ear to my words.
Acts|2:15|-|For these men are not |a|drunk, as you suppose, for it is the |1|third hour of the day;
Acts|2:16|-|But this is what is spoken through the prophet Joel:
Acts|2:17|-||a|“And it shall be in the |1b|last days, says God, that I will |2c|pour out |3|of My Spirit |4|upon |5|all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall |6d|prophesy, and your young men shall see |e|visions, and your old men shall dream things in dreams;
Acts|2:18|-|And indeed upon My slaves, both men and women, I will pour out of My |a|Spirit in those days, and they shall prophesy.
Acts|2:19|-|And I will |1|show wonders in heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and vapor of smoke.
Acts|2:20|-|The |a|sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the |b|great and notable |1c|day of the Lord comes.
Acts|2:21|-|And it shall be that everyone who |1|calls on the |2|name of the Lord shall be |3a|saved.”
Acts|2:22|-||1|Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus the |a|Nazarene, a |2|man |3|shown by God to you to be approved by works of power and wonders and |b|signs, which God did through Him in your midst, even as you yourselves know—
Acts|2:23|-|This man, |a|delivered up by the |1b|determined counsel and |2|foreknowledge of God, you, through the hand of |3|lawless men, |c|nailed to a |4|cross and |d|killed;
Acts|2:24|-|Whom |1|God has |a|raised up, having loosed the pangs of |b|death, since it was |2|not possible for Him to be held by it.
Acts|2:25|-|For David says regarding Him, |1a|“I saw the |2|Lord continually before me, because |3|He is on my right hand, that I may not be shaken.
Acts|2:26|-|Therefore my heart was made glad and my |1|tongue exulted; moreover, also my flesh will |2|rest in hope,
Acts|2:27|-|Because You will not abandon my soul to |1a|Hades, nor will You permit Your |2b|Holy One to see |3|corruption.
Acts|2:28|-|You have made known to me the |1|ways of life; You will make me full of gladness with Your |2|presence.”
Acts|2:29|-||1|Men, brothers, I can say to you plainly concerning the patriarch |a|David that he both deceased and was buried, and his |b|tomb is among us until this day.
Acts|2:30|-|Therefore, being a prophet and knowing that God had |a|sworn with an oath to him to seat One from the |1b|fruit of his loins upon his |2|throne,
Acts|2:31|-|He, seeing this beforehand, spoke concerning the resurrection of the Christ, that neither was He abandoned to Hades, nor did His flesh see |a|corruption.
Acts|2:32|-|This Jesus |1|God has |a|raised up, of |2|which we all are |b|witnesses.
Acts|2:33|-|Therefore having been |a|exalted to the |b|right hand of God and having received the |1|promise of the Holy |c|Spirit from the Father, He has |d|poured out this which you both see and hear.
Acts|2:34|-|For David did |1|not |a|ascend into the heavens, but he himself says, |b|“The |2|Lord said to my Lord, Sit at My |3|right hand
Acts|2:35|-|Until I |1|set Your enemies as a footstool for Your feet.”
Acts|2:36|-|Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God has made Him both |1a|Lord and |b|Christ, this Jesus whom |2|you have |c|crucified.
Acts|2:37|-|And when they heard this, they were |a|pricked in their heart, and they said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, |b|What should we do, |1|brothers?
Acts|2:38|-|And Peter said to them, |1a|Repent and each one of you be |2b|baptized |3|upon the |4|name of Jesus Christ for the |5c|forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the |6d|gift of the Holy |7|Spirit.
Acts|2:39|-|For to |1|you is the |2|promise and to your children, and to all |3|who are |a|far off, |4|as many as the Lord our God |b|calls to Himself.
Acts|2:40|-|And with many other words he solemnly |1a|testified and exhorted them, saying, |2|Be saved from this |b|crooked |3|generation.
Acts|2:41|-|Those then who received his word were |1|baptized, and there were |a|added on that day about three |b|thousand souls.
Acts|2:42|-|And they continued steadfastly in the |1|teaching and the fellowship of the apostles, in the |a|breaking of bread and the |b|prayers.
Acts|2:43|-|And |a|fear was upon every soul; and many |1|wonders and |b|signs took place through the apostles.
Acts|2:44|-|And all those who believed were together and had all things |1a|common;
Acts|2:45|-|And they |1a|sold their properties and possessions and |b|divided them to all, as anyone had need.
Acts|2:46|-|And day by day, continuing steadfastly with |a|one accord in the |1b|temple and |2c|breaking bread from |3d|house to house, they partook of their food with exultation and |4|simplicity of heart,
Acts|2:47|-||a|Praising God and |1|having grace with all the people. And the Lord |b|added |2|together |c|day by day those who were being |d|saved.
