Acts 2:1-6 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

1. When the day of Pentecost had arrived, they were all together in one place.

2. Suddenly a sound like that of a violent rushing wind came from heaven, and it filled the whole house where they were staying.

3. And tongues, like flames of fire that were divided, appeared to them and rested on each one of them.

4. Then they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in different languages, as the Spirit gave them ability for speech.

5. There were Jews living in Jerusalem, devout men from every nation under heaven.

6. When this sound occurred, a crowd came together and was confused because each one heard them speaking in his own language.
