2Acts 2

1And when the days of the Pentecost were accomplished, they were all together in one place:Select Acts 2:1

2And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a mighty wind coming: and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.Select Acts 2:2

3And there appeared to them parted tongues, as it were of fire: and it sat upon every one of them.Select Acts 2:3

4And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost: and they began to speak with divers tongues, according as the Holy Ghost gave them to speak.Select Acts 2:4

5Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem, Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.Select Acts 2:5

6And when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded in mind, because that every man heard them speak in his own tongue.Select Acts 2:6

7And they were all amazed, and wondered, saying: Behold, are not all these that speak Galilean?Select Acts 2:7

8And how have we heard, every man our own tongue wherein we were born?Select Acts 2:8

9Parthians and Medes and Elamites and inhabitants of Mesopotamia, Judea, and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,Select Acts 2:9

10Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome,Select Acts 2:10

11Jews also, and proselytes, Cretes, and Arabians: we have heard them speak in our own tongues the wonderful works of God.Select Acts 2:11

12And they were all astonished, and wondered, saying one to another: What meaneth this?Select Acts 2:12

13But others mocking, said: These men are full of new wine.Select Acts 2:13

14But Peter standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and spoke to them: Ye men of Judea, and all you that dwell in Jerusalem, be this known to you and with your ears receive my words.Select Acts 2:14

15For these are not drunk, as you suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day:Select Acts 2:15

16But this is that which was spoken of by the prophet Joel:Select Acts 2:16

17And it shall come to pass, in the last days, (saith the Lord), 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.Select Acts 2:17

18And upon my servants indeed and upon my handmaids will I pour out in those days of my spirit: and they shall prophesy.Select Acts 2:18

19And I will shew wonders in the heaven above, and signs on the earth beneath: blood and fire, and vapour of smoke.Select Acts 2:19

20The sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the great and manifest day of the Lord to come.Select Acts 2:20

21And it shalt come to pass, that whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.Select Acts 2:21

22Ye 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 you also know:Select Acts 2:22

23This same being delivered up, by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, you by the hands of wicked men have crucified and slain.Select Acts 2:23

24Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the sorrows of hell, as it was impossible that he should be holden by it.Select Acts 2:24

25For David saith concerning him: I foresaw the Lord before my face: because he is at my right hand, that I may not be moved.Select Acts 2:25

26For this my heart hath been glad, and my tongue hath rejoiced: moreover my flesh also shall rest in hope.Select Acts 2:26

27Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell: nor suffer thy Holy One to see corruption.Select Acts 2:27

28Thou hast made known to me the ways of life: thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance.Select Acts 2:28

29Ye men, brethren, let me freely speak to you of the patriarch David: that he died and was buried; and his sepulchre is with us to this present say.Select Acts 2:29

30Whereas therefore he was a prophet and knew that God hath sworn to him with an oath, that of the fruit of his loins one should sit upon his throne.Select Acts 2:30

31Foreseeing this, he spoke of the resurrection of Christ. For neither was he left in hell: neither did his flesh see corruption.Select Acts 2:31

32This Jesus hath God raised again, whereof all we are witnesses.Select Acts 2:32

33Being exalted therefore by the right hand of God and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath poured forth this which you see and hear.Select Acts 2:33

34For David ascended not into heaven; but he himself said: The Lord said to my Lord: Sit thou on my right hand,Select Acts 2:34

35Until I make thy enemies thy footstool.Select Acts 2:35

36Therefore let all the house of Israel know most certainly that God hath made both Lord and Christ, this same Jesus, whom you have crucified.Select Acts 2:36

37Now when they had heard these things, they had compunction in their heart and said to Peter and to the rest of the apostles: What shall we do, men and brethren?Select Acts 2:37

38But Peter said to them: Do penance: and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of your sins. And you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.Select Acts 2:38

39For the promise is to you and to your children and to all that are far off, whomsoever the Lord our God shall call.Select Acts 2:39

40And with very many other words did he testify and exhort them, saying: Save yourselves from this perverse generation.Select Acts 2:40

41They therefore that received his word were baptized: and there were added in that day about three thousand souls.Select Acts 2:41

42And they were persevering in the doctrine of the apostles and in the communication of the breaking of bread and in prayers.Select Acts 2:42

43And fear came upon every soul. Many wonders also and signs were done by the apostles in Jerusalem: and there was great fervor in all.Select Acts 2:43

44And all they that believed were together and had all things common.Select Acts 2:44

45Their possessions and goods they sold and divided them to all, according as every one had need.Select Acts 2:45

46And continuing daily with one accord in the temple and breaking bread from house to house, they took their meat with gladness and simplicity of heart:Select Acts 2:46

47Praising God and having favour with all the people. And the Lord increased daily together such as should be saved.Select Acts 2:47
