place. And suddenly from heaven Lhere came a sound llke Lhe rush
of a vlolenL wlnd, and lL fllled Lhe enLlre house where Lhey were
slLLlng. ulvlded Longues, as of flre, appeared among Lhem, and a
Longue resLed on each of Lhem. All of Lhem were fllled wlLh Lhe
Poly SplrlL and began Lo speak ln oLher languages, as Lhe SplrlL gave
Lhem ablllLy.
now Lhere were devouL !ews from every naLlon under heaven llvlng
ln !erusalem. And aL Lhls sound a crowd gaLhered and was
bewlldered, because each one heard Lhem speaklng ln Lhelr own
language. Amazed and asLonlshed, Lhey asked, Are noL all Lhese
who are speaklng Callleans? And how ls lL LhaL we hear, each of us,
ln our own language? ...ln our own languages we hear Lhem
speaklng abouL Cod's deeds of power."
