23 So they nominated two men: Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus) and Matthias. 24 Then they prayed,(A) “Lord, you know everyone’s heart.(B) Show us(C) which of these two you have chosen 25 to take over this apostolic ministry, which Judas left to go where he belongs.” 26 Then they cast lots, and the lot fell to Matthias; so he was added to the eleven apostles.(D)

The Holy Spirit Comes at Pentecost

When the day of Pentecost(E) came, they were all together(F) in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting.(G) They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit(H) and began to speak in other tongues[a](I) as the Spirit enabled them.
