When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together with one purpose.

And suddenly a roar came out of the sky, like the rushing of a violent wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
Fiery tongues appeared and were distributed to them, and it [a tongue] landed on each one of them.

And they were all filled with Holy Spirit and began to speak different languages, as the Spirit was granting to them to speak out.

Now there were devout men, Jews, from every nation under heaven, dwelling in Jerusalem.

So when that roar occurred, the crowd came together, and was bewildered, because each one was hearing them speaking to him in his own dialect.
So they were amazed and marveled, saying to one another: “Hey, aren't all these who are speaking Galileans?

So how can each of us be hearing our own dialect in which we were born?

Yes they were all amazed and perplexed, saying one to another, “Whatever is going on?”

So Peter, standing with the eleven, raised his voice and proclaimed to them: “Men—Jews and all who are dwelling in Jerusalem—let this be known to you; indeed, listen to my speech!
Because these are not drunk, as you suppose (since it is only the third hour of the day),
but this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel:

For David says concerning Him: ‘I always saw the Lord before my face, because He is at my right side so that I not be shaken.
Therefore my heart was glad and my tongue rejoiced. Furthermore, even my flesh will repose upon hope,
because You will not abandon my soul in Hades, nor will You allow Your Holy One to see decay. (Hadēs g86)
You have made known to me roads of life; with Your presence You make me full of gladness.’

Now upon hearing this they were cut to the heart and said to Peter, and the rest of the Apostles, “Men, brothers, what shall we do?!”

So Peter said to them: “Repent and be baptized, each one of you, upon the name of Jesus Christ, for forgiveness of sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
For the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all who are far away—as many, that is, as the Lord our God may call.”

Then those who gladly received his word were baptized, and that day about three thousand souls were added.
And they continued steadfastly in the Apostles' teaching and in the fellowship, both in the breaking of the bread and in the prayers.

So day by day they continued steadfastly with one purpose in the temple and broke bread from house to house; they received their share of food with gladness and singleness of heart,
