1 When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place.
2 Suddenly a noise came from heaven. It sounded like a strong wind blowing. This noise filled the whole house where they were sitting.
3 They saw something that looked like flames of fire. The flames were separated and stood over each person there.
4 They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they began to speak different languages. The Holy Spirit was giving them the power to do this.
5 There were some godly Jews in Jerusalem at this time. They were from every country in the world.
