Acts 2
Complete Jewish Bible
2 The festival of Shavu‘ot arrived, and the believers all gathered together in one place. 2 Suddenly there came a sound from the sky like the roar of a violent wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. 3 Then they saw what looked like tongues of fire, which separated and came to rest on each one of them. 4 They were all filled with the Ruach HaKodesh and began to talk in different languages, as the Spirit enabled them to speak.
5 Now there were staying in Yerushalayim religious Jews from every nation under heaven. 6 When they heard this sound, a crowd gathered; they were confused, because each one heard the believers speaking in his own language. 7 Totally amazed, they asked, “How is this possible? Aren’t all these people who are speaking from the Galil? 8 How is it that we hear them speaking in our native languages? 9 We are Parthians, Medes, Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Y’hudah, Cappadocia, Pontus, Asia, 10 Phrygia, Pamphylia, Egypt, the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome; 11 Jews by birth and proselytes; Jews from Crete and from Arabia. . . ! How is it that we hear them speaking in our own languages about the great things God has done?” 12 Amazed and confused, they all went on asking each other, “What can this mean?” 13 But others made fun of them and said, “They’ve just had too much wine!”
14 Then Kefa stood up with the Eleven and raised his voice to address them: “You Judeans, and all of you staying here in Yerushalayim! Let me tell you what this means! Listen carefully to me!
15 “These people ar en’t drunk, as you suppose — it’s only nine in the morning. 16 No, this is what was spoken about through the prophet Yo’el:
17 ‘Adonai says:
“In the Last Days,
I will pour out from my Spirit upon everyone.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your young men will see visions,
your old men will dream dreams.
18 Even on my slaves, both men and women,
will I pour out from my Spirit in those days;
and they will prophesy.
19 I will perform miracles in the sky above
and signs on the earth below —
blood, fire and thick smoke.
20 The sun will become dark
and the moon blood
before the great and fearful Day of Adonai comes.
21 And then, whoever calls on the name of Adonai will be saved.”’[a]
22 “Men of Isra’el! Listen to this! Yeshua from Natzeret was a man demonstrated to you to have been from God by the powerful works, miracles and signs that God performed through him in your presence. You yourselves know this. 23 This man was arrested in accordance with God’s predetermined plan and foreknowledge; and, through the agency of persons not bound by the Torah, you nailed him up on a stake and killed him!
24 “But God has raised him up and freed him from the suffering of death; it was impossible that death could keep its hold on him. 25 For David says this about him:
‘I saw Adonai always before me,
for he is at my right hand,
so that I will not be shaken.
26 For this reason, my heart was glad;
and my tongue rejoiced;
and now my body too will live on in the certain hope
27 that you will not abandon me to Sh’ol
or let your Holy One see decay.
28 You have made known to me the ways of life;
you will fill me with joy by your presence.’[b]
29 “Brothers, I know I can say to you frankly that the patriarch David died and was buried — his tomb is with us to this day. 30 Therefore, since he was a prophet and knew that God had sworn an oath to him that one of his descendants would sit on his throne, 31 he was speaking in advance about the resurrection of the Messiah, that it was he who was not abandoned in Sh’ol and whose flesh did not see decay. 32 God raised up this Yeshua! And we are all witnesses of it!
33 “Moreover, he has been exalted to the right hand of God; has received from the Father what he promised, namely, the Ruach HaKodesh; and has poured out this gift, which you are both seeing and hearing. 34 For David did not ascend into heaven. But he says,
35 ‘Adonai said to my Lord,
“Sit at my right hand
until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.”’[c]
36 Therefore, let the whole house of Isra’el know beyond doubt that God has made him both Lord and Messiah — this Yeshua, whom you executed on a stake!”
37 On hearing this, they were stung in their hearts; and they said to Kefa and the other emissaries, “Brothers, what should we do?” 38 Kefa answered them, “Turn from sin, return to God, and each of you be immersed on the authority of Yeshua the Messiah into forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Ruach HaKodesh! 39 For the promise is for you, for your children, and for those far away — as many as Adonai our God may call!”
40 He pressed his case with many other arguments and kept pleading with them, “Save yourselves from this perverse generation!”
41 So those who accepted what he said were immersed, and there were added to the group that day about three thousand people.
42 They continued faithfully in the teaching of the emissaries, in fellowship, in breaking bread and in the prayers. 43 Everyone was filled with awe, and many miracles and signs took place through the emissaries. 44 All those trusting in Yeshua stayed together and had everything in common; 45 in fact, they sold their property and possessions and distributed the proceeds to all who were in need. 46 Continuing faithfully and with singleness of purpose to meet in the Temple courts daily, and breaking bread in their several homes, they shared their food in joy and simplicity of heart, 47 praising God and having the respect of all the people. And day after day the Lord kept adding to them those who were being saved.

2 · kai When en · ho the ho day hēmera of ho Pentecost pentēkostē arrived symplēroō, they were eimi all pas together homou in epi the ho same autos place . 2 And kai suddenly aphnō from ek heaven ouranos there came ginomai · ho a sound ēchos like hōsper a violent biaios blast pherō of wind pnoē, and kai it filled plēroō the ho whole holos house oikos where hou they were eimi sitting kathēmai. 3 And kai there appeared horaō to them autos tongues glōssa spreading diamerizō out like hōsei fire pyr, and kai one came to rest kathizō on epi each hekastos one heis of them autos. 4 And kai they were all pas filled pimplēmi with the Holy hagios Spirit pneuma, and kai they began archō to speak laleō with other heteros tongues glōssa as kathōs the ho Spirit pneuma gave didōmi them autos utterance apophthengomai.
5 Now de there were eimi living katoikeō in eis Jerusalem Ierousalēm Jews Ioudaios, devout eulabēs men anēr from apo every pas nation ethnos · ho under hypo · ho heaven ouranos. 6 But de when this houtos sound phōnē was heard ginomai · ho the ho crowd plēthos gathered synerchomai, and kai they were perplexed syncheō, because hoti each hekastos one heis was hearing akouō them autos speak laleō in ho his idios own language dialektos. 7 And de they were amazed existēmi and kai wondered thaumazō, saying legō, “ Are eimi not ou all hapas these houtos who ho are speaking laleō Galileans Galilaios? 8 And kai how pōs do we hēmeis hear akouō, each hekastos of us hēmeis in ho his idios own language dialektos to en which hos he was born gennaō? 9 Parthians Parthoi and kai Medes Mēdos and kai Elamites Elamitēs and kai · ho residents katoikeō of ho Mesopotamia Mesopotamia, Judea Ioudaia and kai Cappadocia Kappadokia, Pontus Pontos and kai · ho Asia Asia, 10 Phrygia Phrygia and kai Pamphylia Pamphylia, Egypt Aigyptos and kai the ho parts meros of ho Libya Libyē · ho near kata Cyrene Kyrēnē, and kai · ho visitors epidēmeō from Rome Rhōmaios, 11 Jews Ioudaios and kai proselytes prosēlytos, Cretans Krēs and kai Arabians Araps— we hear akouō them autos telling laleō in ho our hēmeteros own tongues glōssa the ho mighty megaleios works of ho God theos.” 12 And de all pas were amazed existēmi and kai perplexed diaporeō, saying legō to pros one allos another allos, “ What tis does thelō this houtos mean eimi?” 13 But de others heteros mocking diachleuazō said legō, “ They are eimi filled with mestoō new gleukos wine .”

22 “ Men anēr of Israel Israēlitēs, hear akouō · ho these houtos words logos: Jesus Iēsous of ho Nazareth Nazōraios, a man anēr attested apodeiknymi to eis you hymeis by apo · ho God theos with mighty dynamis works and kai wonders teras and kai signs sēmeion that hos God theos did poieō through dia him autos · ho in en your hymeis midst mesos, as kathōs you yourselves autos know oida— 23 this houtos Jesus, delivered up ekdotos according to the ho determined horizō purpose boulē and kai foreknowledge prognōsis of ho God theos, you anaireō, at dia the hands cheir of those outside anomos the law , executed anaireō by nailing prospēgnymi him to a cross ; 24 whom hos · ho God theos raised anistēmi up , loosing lyō the ho pangs ōdin of ho death thanatos, as kathoti it was eimi not ou possible dynatos for him autos to be held krateō by hypo it autos. 25 For gar David Dauid says legō regarding eis him autos, ‘ I foresaw prooraō the ho Lord kyrios before enōpion me egō always dia pas, for hoti he is eimi at ek my egō right dexios hand that hina I may not mē be shaken saleuō; 26 on dia account of this houtos my egō heart kardia rejoiced euphrainō, · ho and kai my egō tongue glōssa was glad agalliaō; · ho moreover eti de my egō flesh sarx also kai · ho will dwell kataskēnoō in epi hope elpis. 27 For hoti you will not ou abandon enkataleipō · ho my egō soul psychē to eis Hades hadēs, or oude allow didōmi · ho your sy Holy hosios One to see corruption diaphthora. 28 You have made known gnōrizō to me egō the paths hodos of life zōē; you will make me egō full plēroō of joy euphrosynē with meta · ho your sy presence prosōpon.’ 29 My brothers anēr, I can speak legō to pros you hymeis confidently meta parrēsia about peri the ho patriarch patriarchēs David Dauid, that hoti he is both kai dead teleutaō and kai buried thaptō and kai · ho his autos tomb mnēma is eimi with en us hēmeis to achri · ho this houtos day hēmera. 30 Therefore oun being hyparchō a prophet prophētēs, and kai knowing oida that hoti God theos promised omnyō him autos with an oath horkos · ho that he would place kathizō one of his descendants ek · ho on epi · ho his autos throne thronos, 31 he foresaw prooraō and spoke laleō about peri the ho resurrection anastasis of the ho Christ Christos, that hoti he was not oute abandoned enkataleipō to eis Hades hadēs, nor oute did · ho his autos flesh sarx see corruption diaphthora. 32 This houtos · ho Jesus Iēsous God theos raised anistēmi up , · ho of which hos we hēmeis all pas are eimi witnesses martys. 33 So then oun, exalted hypsoō at the ho right dexios hand of ho God theos, and having received lambanō from para the ho Father patēr the ho promise epangelia of the ho Holy hagios Spirit pneuma, · ho he has poured ekcheō out this houtos that hos you hymeis are both kai seeing blepō and kai hearing akouō. 34 For gar David Dauid did not ou ascend anabainō into eis the ho heavens ouranos, but de he himself autos says legō, ‘ The ho Lord kyrios said legō to ho my egō Lord kyrios, Sit kathēmai at ek my egō right dexios hand , 35 until heōs an I make tithēmi · ho your sy enemies echthros a footstool hypopodion for ho your sy feet pous.’ 36 So oun let ginōskō the entire pas house oikos of Israel Israēl know ginōskō for certain asphalōs that hoti God theos has made poieō him autos both kai Lord kyrios and kai Christ Christos, · ho this houtos · ho Jesus Iēsous whom hos you hymeis crucified stauroō.”
