6And when 1thisG3778 soundG5456 occurredG1096, the crowdG4128 cameG4905 togetherG4905, and were bewilderedG4797 becauseG3754 eachG1538 oneG1520 of them was hearingG191 them speakG2980 in his ownG2398 2languageG1258. 73They were amazedG1839 and astonishedG2296, sayingG3004, “4WhyG2400, are not allG3956 theseG3778 who are speakingG2980 5GalileansG1057? 8And howG4459 is it that we eachG1538 hearG191 them in our ownG2398 6languageG1258 7to whichG3739 we were bornG1080? 9ParthiansG3934 and MedesG3370 and ElamitesG1639, and residentsG2730 of MesopotamiaG3318, JudeaG2453 and 8CappadociaG2587, 9PontusG4195 and 1011AsiaG773, 1012PhrygiaG5435 and 13PamphyliaG3828, EgyptG125 and the districtsG3313 of LibyaG3033 aroundG2596 14CyreneG2957, and 1516visitorsG1927 from RomeG4514, bothG5037 JewsG2453 and 1718proselytesG4339, 11CretansG2912 and ArabsG690--we hearG191 them in our own tonguesG1100 speakingG2980 of the mightyG3167 deedsG3167 of GodG2316.” 12And 19they allG3956 continued in amazementG1839 and greatG1280 perplexityG1280, sayingG3004 to oneG243 anotherG243, “WhatG5101 does thisG3778 meanG2309G1510?” 13But othersG2087 were mockingG1315 and sayingG3004, “20They are fullG3325 of 21sweetG1098 wineG1098.”
14But PeterG4074, 22takingG2476 his standG2476 with 23the elevenG1733, raisedG1869 his voiceG5456 and declaredG669 to them: “MenG435 of JudeaG2453 and allG3956 you who liveG2730 in JerusalemG2419, let thisG3778 be knownG1110 to you and giveG1801 heedG1801 to my wordsG4487. 15For theseG3778 menG3778 are not drunkG3184, as you supposeG5274, 24for it is only the 25thirdG5154 hourG5610 of the dayG2250; 16but thisG3778 is what was spokenG3004 of throughG1223 the prophetG4396 JoelG2493:17‘26And it shall be in the lastG2078 daysG2250,’ GodG2316 saysG3004, ‘That I will pourG1632 forthG1632 of My SpiritG4151 on allG3956 27mankindG4561; And your sonsG5207 and your daughtersG2364 shall prophesyG4395, And your youngG3495 menG3495 shall seeG3708 visionsG3706, And your oldG4245 menG4245 shall dreamG1797 dreamsG1798;18EvenG2532 on My bondslavesG1401, both menG1401 and womenG1401, I will in thoseG1565 daysG2250 pourG1632 forthG1632 of My SpiritG4151 And they shall prophesyG4395.19And I will grantG1325 wondersG5059 in the skyG3772 aboveG507 And signsG4592 on the earthG1093 belowG2736, BloodG129, and fireG4442, and vaporG822 of smokeG2586.20The sunG2246 will be turnedG3344 into darknessG4655 And the moonG4582 into bloodG129, BeforeG4250 the greatG3173 and gloriousG2016 dayG2250 of the LordG2962 shall comeG2064.21And it shall be that 28everyoneG3956 whoG3739 callsG1941 on the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 will be savedG4982.’
