La venida del Espíritu Santo

2 Cuando llegó[a] el día de Pentecostés(A), estaban todos juntos[b] en un mismo lugar. 2 De repente vino del cielo un ruido como el de una ráfaga de viento impetuoso que[c] llenó toda la casa donde estaban sentados(B), 3 y se les aparecieron lenguas como de fuego que, repartiéndose[d], se posaron[e] sobre cada uno de ellos. 4 Todos fueron llenos del Espíritu Santo(C) y comenzaron a hablar en otras lenguas(D), según el Espíritu les daba habilidad para expresarse.

5 Y había judíos que moraban en Jerusalén, hombres piadosos(E), procedentes de todas las naciones bajo el cielo. 6 Y al ocurrir este estruendo(F), la multitud se juntó; y estaban desconcertados porque cada uno los oía hablar en su propia lengua[f]. 7 Y estaban asombrados y se maravillaban(G), diciendo: Mirad, ¿no son galileos(H) todos estos que están hablando? 8 ¿Cómo es que cada uno de nosotros los oímos hablar en nuestra lengua[g] en la que hemos nacido? 9 Partos, medos y elamitas, habitantes de Mesopotamia, de Judea y de Capadocia, del Ponto(I) y de Asia[h](J), 10 de Frigia(K) y de Panfilia(L), de Egipto y de las regiones de Libia[i] alrededor de Cirene(M), viajeros(N) de Roma, tanto judíos como prosélitos[j](O), 11 cretenses y árabes, les oímos hablar en nuestros idiomas de las maravillas de Dios. 12 Todos estaban asombrados y perplejos(P), diciéndose unos a otros: ¿Qué quiere decir esto? 13 Pero otros se burlaban y decían: Están borrachos[k](Q).

Primer sermón de Pedro

14 Entonces Pedro, poniéndose en pie con los once(R), alzó la voz y les declaró: Varones judíos y todos los que vivís en Jerusalén, sea esto de vuestro conocimiento y prestad atención a mis palabras, 15 porque estos no están borrachos como vosotros suponéis, pues apenas es la hora tercera[l] del día(S); 16 sino que esto es lo que fue dicho por medio del profeta Joel:

17 (T)Y sucederá en los Últimos días —dice Dios—
que derramaré de mi Espíritu sobre toda carne;
y vuestros hijos y vuestras hijas profetizarán,
vuestros jóvenes verán visiones,
y vuestros ancianos soñarán sueños;
18 y aun sobre mis siervos y sobre mis siervas
derramaré de mi Espíritu en esos días,
y profetizarán.
19 Y mostraré prodigios arriba en el cielo
y señales abajo en la tierra:
sangre, fuego y columna[m] de humo.
20 El sol se convertirá en tinieblas
y la luna en sangre,
antes que venga el día grande y glorioso[n] del Señor.
21 Y sucederá[o] que todo aquel que invoque el nombre del Señor será salvo(U).

22 Varones israelitas, escuchad estas palabras: Jesús el Nazareno(V), varón confirmado[p] por Dios entre vosotros con milagros[q], prodigios y señales[r](W) que Dios hizo en medio vuestro a través de Él(X), tal como vosotros mismos sabéis, 23 a este, entregado por el plan predeterminado y el previo conocimiento[s] de Dios(Y), clavasteis en una cruz por manos de impíos[t] y le matasteis(Z), 24 a quien Dios resucitó(AA), poniendo fin a la agonía[u] de la muerte, puesto que no era posible que Él quedara bajo el dominio de ella(AB). 25 Porque David dice de Él:

(AC)Veía siempre al Señor en mi presencia;
pues está a mi diestra para que yo no sea conmovido.
26 Por lo cual mi corazón se alegró y mi lengua se regocijó;
y aun hasta mi carne descansará en esperanza;
27 pues tú no abandonarás mi alma en el Hades[v](AD),
ni permitirás[w] que tu Santo vea corrupción(AE).
28 Me has hecho conocer los caminos de la vida;
me llenarás de gozo con tu presencia.

29 Hermanos[x], del patriarca(AF) David os puedo decir confiadamente que murió y fue sepultado(AG), y su sepulcro(AH) está entre nosotros hasta el día de hoy. 30 Pero siendo profeta(AI), y sabiendo que Dios le había jurado sentar a uno de sus descendientes[y] en su trono(AJ), 31 miró hacia el futuro y habló de la resurrección de Cristo[z], que no fue abandonado en el Hades[aa], ni su carne sufrió[ab] corrupción(AK). 32 A este Jesús resucitó Dios(AL), de lo cual todos nosotros somos testigos(AM). 33 Así que, exaltado a[ac] la diestra de Dios(AN), y habiendo recibido del Padre la promesa(AO) del Espíritu Santo(AP), ha derramado(AQ) esto que vosotros veis y oís. 34 Porque David no ascendió a los cielos, pero él mismo dice:

(AR)Dijo el Señor a mi Señor:
«Siéntate a mi diestra,
35 hasta que ponga a tus enemigos por estrado de tus pies».

36 Sepa, pues, con certeza toda la casa de Israel(AS), que a este Jesús a quien vosotros crucificasteis(AT), Dios le ha hecho Señor y Cristo[ad](AU).

Efectos del sermón de Pedro

37 Al oír esto, compungidos de corazón[ae], dijeron a Pedro y a los demás apóstoles: Hermanos[af], ¿qué haremos(AV)? 38 Y Pedro les dijo: Arrepentíos(AW) y sed bautizados(AX) cada uno de vosotros en el nombre de Jesucristo para perdón de vuestros pecados, y recibiréis el don del Espíritu Santo. 39 Porque la promesa es para vosotros y para vuestros hijos(AY) y para todos los que están lejos(AZ), para tantos como el Señor nuestro Dios llame. 40 Y con muchas otras palabras testificaba(BA) solemnemente y les exhortaba diciendo: Sed salvos[ag] de esta perversa generación(BB). 41 Entonces los que habían recibido su palabra fueron bautizados; y se añadieron aquel día como tres mil almas[ah](BC). 42 Y se dedicaban continuamente(BD) a las enseñanzas de los apóstoles, a la comunión, al partimiento del pan(BE) y a la oración[ai](BF).

Comunión de los creyentes

43 Sobrevino temor a toda persona; y muchos prodigios y señales[aj](BG) eran hechas por los apóstoles[ak]. 44 Todos los que habían creído estaban juntos y tenían todas las cosas en común(BH); 45 vendían todas sus propiedades y sus bienes y los compartían con todos(BI), según la necesidad de cada uno. 46 Día tras día continuaban unánimes en el templo y partiendo el pan(BJ) en los hogares(BK), comían juntos[al] con alegría y sencillez de corazón, 47 alabando a Dios y hallando favor con todo el pueblo(BL). Y el Señor añadía cada día al número(BM) de ellos los que iban siendo salvos(BN).

Acts 2
King James Version

2 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.

6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language.

7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?

8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?

9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,

10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,

11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.

12 And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?

13 Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine.

14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words:

15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day.

16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;

17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:

18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:

19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:

20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come:

21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

22 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:

23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:

24 Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.

25 For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:

26 Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:

27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

28 Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance.

29 Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day.

30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;

31 He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.

32 This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.

33 Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.

34 For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,

35 Until I make thy foes thy footstool.

36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made the same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.

37 Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?

38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.

40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.

41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.

42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.

43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles.

44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common;

45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.

46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart,

47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

Acts 2
New King James Version

Coming of the Holy Spirit

2 When (A)the Day of Pentecost had fully come, (B)they were all [a]with one accord in one place. 2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and (C)it filled the whole house where they were sitting. 3 Then there appeared to them [b]divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. 4 And (D)they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began (E)to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

The Crowd’s Response

5 And there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, (F)devout men, from every nation under heaven. 6 And when this sound occurred, the (G)multitude came together, and were confused, because everyone heard them speak in his own language. 7 Then they were all amazed and marveled, saying to one another, “Look, are not all these who speak (H)Galileans? 8 And how is it that we hear, each in our own [c]language in which we were born? 9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites, those dwelling in Mesopotamia, Judea and (I)Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, 10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya adjoining Cyrene, visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes, 11 Cretans and [d]Arabs—we hear them speaking in our own tongues the wonderful works of God.” 12 So they were all amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, “Whatever could this mean?”

13 Others mocking said, “They are full of new wine.”

Peter’s Sermon(J)

14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, raised his voice and said to them, “Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and heed my words. 15 For these are not drunk, as you suppose, (K)since it is only [e]the third hour of the day. 16 But this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:

17 ‘And(L) it shall come to pass in the last days, says God,
(M)That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh;
Your sons and (N)your daughters shall prophesy,
Your young men shall see visions,
Your old men shall dream dreams.
18 And on My menservants and on My maidservants
I will pour out My Spirit in those days;
(O)And they shall prophesy.
19 (P)I will show wonders in heaven above
And signs in the earth beneath:
Blood and fire and vapor of smoke.
20 (Q)The sun shall be turned into darkness,
And the moon into blood,
Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord.
21 And it shall come to pass
That (R)whoever calls on the name of the Lord
Shall be saved.’

22 “Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a Man attested by God to you (S)by miracles, wonders, and signs which God did through Him in your midst, as you yourselves also know— 23 Him, (T)being delivered by the determined purpose and foreknowledge of God, (U)you [f]have taken by lawless hands, have crucified, and put to death; 24 (V)whom God raised up, having [g]loosed the [h]pains of death, because it was not possible that He should be held by it. 25 For David says concerning Him:

(W)‘I foresaw the Lord always before my face,
For He is at my right hand, that I may not be shaken.
26 Therefore my heart rejoiced, and my tongue was glad;
Moreover my flesh also will rest in hope.
27 For You will not leave my soul in Hades,
Nor will You allow Your Holy One to see (X)corruption.
28 You have made known to me the ways of life;
You will make me full of joy in Your presence.’

29 “Men and brethren, let me speak freely to you (Y)of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his tomb is with us to this day. 30 Therefore, being a prophet, (Z)and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him that of the fruit of his body, [i]according to the flesh, He would raise up the Christ to sit on his throne, 31 he, foreseeing this, spoke concerning the resurrection of the Christ, (AA)that His soul was not left in Hades, nor did His flesh see corruption. 32 (AB)This Jesus God has raised up, (AC)of which we are all witnesses. 33 Therefore (AD)being exalted [j]to (AE)the right hand of God, and (AF)having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He (AG)poured out this which you now see and hear.

34 “For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he says himself:

(AH)‘The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at My right hand,
35 Till I make Your enemies Your footstool.” ’

36 “Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.”

37 Now when they heard this, (AI)they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Men and brethren, what shall we do?”

38 Then Peter said to them, (AJ)“Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the [k]remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is to you and (AK)to your children, and (AL)to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.”

A Vital Church Grows

40 And with many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, “Be saved from this [l]perverse generation.” 41 Then those who [m]gladly received his word were baptized; and that day about three thousand souls were added to them. 42 (AM)And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ [n]doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers. 43 Then fear came upon every soul, and (AN)many wonders and signs were done through the apostles. 44 Now all who believed were together, and (AO)had all things in common, 45 and [o]sold their possessions and goods, and (AP)divided[p] them among all, as anyone had need.

46 (AQ)So continuing daily with one accord (AR)in the temple, and (AS)breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart, 47 praising God and having favor with all the people. And (AT)the Lord added [q]to the church daily those who were being saved.
