5 Many religious Jews from every country in the world were living in Jerusalem.
6 And when they heard this noise, a crowd gathered. But they were surprised, because they were hearing everything in their own languages.
7 They were excited and amazed, and said:Don't all these who are speaking come from Galilee?
8 Then why do we hear them speaking our very own languages?
9 Some of us are from Parthia, Media, and Elam. Others are from Mesopotamia, Judea, Cappadocia, Pontus, Asia,
10 Phrygia, Pamphylia, Egypt, parts of Libya near Cyrene, Rome,
11 Crete, and Arabia. Some of us were born Jews, and others of us have chosen to be Jews. Yet we all hear them using our own languages to tell the wonderful things God has done.
