42 “Jesus told us to go and speak to the people. He told us to tell them that he is the one God chose to be the Judge of all who are living and all who have died.
43 Everyone who believes in Jesus will have their sins forgiven through his name. All the prophets agree that this is true.”
44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit came down on all those who were listening to his speech.
45 The Jewish believers who came with Peter were amazed that the Holy Spirit had been poured out as a gift also to people who were not Jews.
46 They heard them speaking different languages and praising God. Then Peter said,
