The Holy Spirit Falls on the Gentiles
44 While Peter was still saying these things, (A)the Holy Spirit fell on all who heard the word. 45 And the believers from among (B)the circumcised who had come with Peter were amazed, because (C)the gift of the Holy Spirit (D)was poured out even on the Gentiles. 46 For they were hearing them (E)speaking in tongues and extolling God. Then Peter declared, 47 (F)“Can anyone withhold water for baptizing these people, who have received the Holy Spirit (G)just as we have?” 48 And he (H)commanded them (I)to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to remain for some days.
