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