Paul placed his hands on them. Then the Holy Spirit came on them. They spoke in languages they had not known before. They also prophesied.

After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit. They were bold when they spoke God’s word.

Suddenly a sound came from heaven. It was like a strong wind blowing. It filled the whole house where they were sitting.They saw something that looked like fire in the shape of tongues. The flames separated and came to rest on each of them.All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit. They began to speak in languages they had not known before. The Spirit gave them the ability to do this.Godly Jews from every country in the world were staying in Jerusalem.A crowd came together when they heard the sound. They were bewildered because each of them heard their own language being spoken.The crowd was really amazed. They asked,“ Aren’t all these people who are speaking Galileans?Then why do we each hear them speaking in our own native language?We are Parthians, Medes and Elamites. We live in Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia. We are from Pontus, Asia,Phrygia and Pamphylia. Others of us are from Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene. Still others are visitors from Rome.Some of the visitors are Jews. Others have accepted the Jewish faith. Also, Cretans and Arabs are here.

It started in Galilee after John preached about baptism.You know how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power. Jesus went around doing good. He healed all who were under the devil’s power. God was with him.“ We are witnesses of everything he did in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They killed him by nailing him to a cross.But on the third day God raised him from the dead. God allowed Jesus to be seen.But he wasn’t seen by all the people. He was seen only by us. We are witnesses whom God had already chosen. We ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.He commanded us to preach to the people. He told us to tell people that he is the one appointed by God to judge the living and the dead.All the prophets tell about him. They say that all who believe in him have their sins forgiven through his name.”While Peter was still speaking, the Holy Spirit came on all who heard the message.Some Jewish believers had come with Peter. They were amazed because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on the Gentiles.They heard them speaking in languages they had not known before. They also heard them praising God. Then Peter said,
