Acts 2

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