1 At length, on the day of the Harvest Festival, they had all met in one place;

2 when suddenly there came from the sky a sound as of a strong rushing blast of wind. This filled the whole house where they were sitting;

3 and they saw tongues of what looked like fire distributing themselves over the assembly, and on the head of each person a tongue alighted.

4 They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak in foreign languages according as the Spirit gave them words to utter.

5 Now there were Jews residing in Jerusalem, devout men from every part of the world.
