The Believers Are Filled with the Holy Spirit
2 When Pentecost, the fiftieth day after Passover, came, all the believers were together in one place. 2 Suddenly, a sound like a violently blowing wind came from the sky and filled the whole house where they were staying. 3 Tongues that looked like fire appeared to them. The tongues arranged themselves so that one came to rest on each believer. 4 All the believers were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other languages as the Spirit gave them the ability to speak.
5 Devout Jewish men from every nation were living in Jerusalem. 6 They gathered when they heard the wind. Each person was startled to recognize his own dialect when the disciples spoke.
7 Stunned and amazed, the people in the crowd said, “All of these men who are speaking are Galileans. 8 Why do we hear them speaking in our native dialects? 9 We’re Parthians, Medes, and Elamites. We’re people from Mesopotamia, Judea, Cappadocia, Pontus, the province of Asia, 10 Phrygia, Pamphylia, Egypt, and the country near Cyrene in Libya. We’re Jewish people, converts to Judaism, and visitors from Rome, 11 Crete, and Arabia. We hear these men in our own languages as they tell about the miracles that God has done.”
12 All of these devout men were stunned and puzzled. They asked each other, “What can this mean?” 13 Others said jokingly, “They’re drunk on sweet wine.”
Peter Talks to the Crowd
14 Then Peter stood up with the eleven apostles. In a loud voice he said to them, “Men of Judea and everyone living in Jerusalem! You must understand this, so pay attention to what I say. 15 These men are not drunk as you suppose. It’s only nine in the morning. 16 Rather, this is what the prophet Joel spoke about:
17 ‘In the last days, God says,
I will pour my Spirit on everyone.
Your sons and daughters will speak what God has revealed.
Your young men will see visions.
Your old men will dream dreams.
18 In those days
I will pour my Spirit on my servants, on both men and women.
They will speak what God has revealed.
19 I will work miracles in the sky and give signs on the earth:
blood, fire, and clouds of smoke.
20 The sun will become dark,
and the moon will become as red as blood
before the terrifying day of the Lord comes.
21 Then whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.’
22 “Men of Israel, listen to what I say: Yeshua from Nazareth was a man whom God brought to your attention. You know that through this man God worked miracles, did amazing things, and gave signs. 23 By using men who don’t acknowledge Moses’ Teachings, you crucified Yeshua, who was given over to death by a plan that God had determined in advance. 24 But God brought him from death back to life and destroyed the pains of death, because death had no power to hold him. 25 This is what David meant when he said about Yeshua:
‘I always see the Lord in front of me.
I cannot be moved because he is by my side.
26 That is why my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices.
My body also rests securely
27 because you do not abandon my soul to the grave
or allow your holy one to decay.
28 You make the path of life known to me.
In your presence there is complete joy.’
29 “Brothers, I can tell you confidently that our ancestor David died and was buried and that his tomb is here to this day. 30 David was a prophet and knew that God had promised with an oath that he would place one of David’s descendants on his throne. 31 David knew that the Messiah would come back to life, and he spoke about that before it ever happened. He said that the Messiah wouldn’t be left in the grave and that his body wouldn’t decay.
32 “God brought this man Yeshua back to life. We are all witnesses to that. 33 God used his power to give Yeshua the highest position. Yeshua has also received and has poured out the Holy Spirit as the Father had promised, and this is what you’re seeing and hearing. 34 David didn’t go up to heaven, but he said,
‘The Lord said to my Lord,
“Take my highest position of power
35 until I put your enemies under your control.” ’
36 “All the people of Israel should know beyond a doubt that God made Yeshua, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.”
37 When the people heard this, they were deeply upset. They asked Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what should we do?”
38 Peter answered them, “All of you must turn to God and change the way you think and act, and each of you must be baptized in the name of Yeshua Christ so that your sins will be forgiven. Then you will receive the Holy Spirit as a gift. 39 This promise belongs to you and to your children and to everyone who is far away. It belongs to everyone who worships the Lord our God.”
40 Peter said much more to warn them. He urged, “Save yourselves from this corrupt generation.” 41 Those who accepted what Peter said were baptized. That day about 3,000 people were added to the group.
Life as a Christian
42 The disciples were devoted to the teachings of the apostles, to fellowship, to the breaking of bread, and to prayer. 43 A feeling of fear came over everyone as many amazing things and miraculous signs happened through the apostles. 44 All the believers kept meeting together, and they shared everything with each other. 45 From time to time, they sold their property and other possessions and distributed the money to anyone who needed it. 46 The believers had a single purpose and went to the temple every day. They were joyful and humble as they ate at each other’s homes and shared their food. 47 At the same time, they praised God and had the good will of all the people. Every day the Lord saved people, and they were added to the group.

The Holy Spirit Comes at Pentecost
2 When the day of Pentecost(A) came, they were all together(B) in one place. 2 Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting.(C) 3 They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. 4 All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit(D) and began to speak in other tongues[a](E) as the Spirit enabled them.
5 Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing(F) Jews from every nation under heaven. 6 When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard their own language being spoken. 7 Utterly amazed,(G) they asked: “Aren’t all these who are speaking Galileans?(H) 8 Then how is it that each of us hears them in our native language? 9 Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia,(I) Pontus(J) and Asia,[b](K) 10 Phrygia(L) and Pamphylia,(M) Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene;(N) visitors from Rome 11 (both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs—we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!” 12 Amazed and perplexed, they asked one another, “What does this mean?”
13 Some, however, made fun of them and said, “They have had too much wine.”(O)
Peter Addresses the Crowd
14 Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, raised his voice and addressed the crowd: “Fellow Jews and all of you who live in Jerusalem, let me explain this to you; listen carefully to what I say. 15 These people are not drunk, as you suppose. It’s only nine in the morning!(P) 16 No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:
17 “‘In the last days, God says,
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.(Q)
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,(R)
your young men will see visions,
your old men will dream dreams.
18 Even on my servants, both men and women,
I will pour out my Spirit in those days,
and they will prophesy.(S)
19 I will show wonders in the heavens above
and signs on the earth below,(T)
blood and fire and billows of smoke.
20 The sun will be turned to darkness
and the moon to blood(U)
before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord.
21 And everyone who calls
on the name of the Lord(V) will be saved.’[c](W)
22 “Fellow Israelites, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth(X) was a man accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs,(Y) which God did among you through him,(Z) as you yourselves know. 23 This man was handed over to you by God’s deliberate plan and foreknowledge;(AA) and you, with the help of wicked men,[d] put him to death by nailing him to the cross.(AB) 24 But God raised him from the dead,(AC) freeing him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him.(AD) 25 David said about him:
“‘I saw the Lord always before me.
Because he is at my right hand,
I will not be shaken.
26 Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;
my body also will rest in hope,
27 because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead,
you will not let your holy one see decay.(AE)
28 You have made known to me the paths of life;
you will fill me with joy in your presence.’[e](AF)
29 “Fellow Israelites,(AG) I can tell you confidently that the patriarch(AH) David died and was buried,(AI) and his tomb is here(AJ) to this day. 30 But he was a prophet and knew that God had promised him on oath that he would place one of his descendants on his throne.(AK) 31 Seeing what was to come, he spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah, that he was not abandoned to the realm of the dead, nor did his body see decay.(AL) 32 God has raised this Jesus to life,(AM) and we are all witnesses(AN) of it. 33 Exalted(AO) to the right hand of God,(AP) he has received from the Father(AQ) the promised Holy Spirit(AR) and has poured out(AS) what you now see and hear. 34 For David did not ascend to heaven, and yet he said,
“‘The Lord said to my Lord:
“Sit at my right hand
35 until I make your enemies
a footstool for your feet.”’[f](AT)
36 “Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord(AU) and Messiah.”(AV)
37 When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?”(AW)
38 Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized,(AX) every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins.(AY) And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.(AZ) 39 The promise is for you and your children(BA) and for all who are far off(BB)—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”
40 With many other words he warned them; and he pleaded with them, “Save yourselves from this corrupt generation.”(BC) 41 Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number(BD) that day.
The Fellowship of the Believers
42 They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching(BE) and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread(BF) and to prayer.(BG) 43 Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles.(BH) 44 All the believers were together and had everything in common.(BI) 45 They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need.(BJ) 46 Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts.(BK) They broke bread(BL) in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, 47 praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people.(BM) And the Lord added to their number(BN) daily those who were being saved.

La venida del Espíritu Santo
2 Cuando llegó[a] el día de Pentecostés(A), estaban todos juntos en un mismo lugar, 2 y de repente vino del cielo un ruido como el de una ráfaga de viento impetuoso que[b] llenó toda la casa donde estaban sentados(B). 3 Se les aparecieron lenguas como de fuego que, repartiéndose[c], se posaron[d] 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 Había judíos que moraban en Jerusalén, hombres piadosos(E), procedentes de todas las naciones bajo el cielo. 6 Al ocurrir este estruendo(F), la multitud se juntó; y estaban desconcertados porque cada uno los oía hablar en su propia lengua[e].
7 Estaban asombrados y se maravillaban(G), diciendo: «Miren, ¿no son galileos(H) todos estos que están hablando? 8 ¿Cómo es que cada uno de nosotros los oímos hablar en nuestra lengua[f] en la que hemos nacido? 9 Partos, medos y elamitas, habitantes de Mesopotamia, Judea y Capadocia, del Ponto(I) y de Asia[g](J), 10 de Frigia(K) y de Panfilia(L), de Egipto y de las regiones de Libia alrededor de Cirene(M), viajeros(N) de Roma, tanto judíos como prosélitos[h](O), 11 cretenses y árabes, los oímos hablar en nuestros propios 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[i](Q)».
Primer sermón de Pedro
14 Entonces Pedro, poniéndose en pie con los once apóstoles(R), alzó la voz y les declaró: «Hombres de Judea y todos los que viven en Jerusalén, sea esto de su conocimiento y presten atención a mis palabras. 15 Porque estos no están borrachos como ustedes suponen, pues apenas es la hora tercera[j](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 sus hijos y sus hijas profetizarán,
Sus jóvenes verán visiones,
Y sus 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[k] de humo.
20 -”El sol se convertirá en tinieblas
Y la luna en sangre,
Antes que venga el día grande y glorioso[l] del Señor.
21 -”Y sucederá[m] que todo aquel que invoque el nombre del Señor será salvo(U)”.
22 »Hombres de Israel, escuchen estas palabras: Jesús el Nazareno(V), varón confirmado[n] por Dios entre ustedes con milagros[o], prodigios y señales[p](W) que Dios hizo en medio de ustedes a través de Él(X), tal como ustedes mismos saben. 23 Este fue entregado por el plan predeterminado y el previo conocimiento[q] de Dios(Y), y ustedes lo clavaron en una cruz por manos de impíos[r] y lo mataron(Z). 24 Pero Dios lo resucitó(AA), poniendo fin a la agonía 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 sacudido.
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[s](AD),
Ni permitirás[t] 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[u], del patriarca(AF) David les puedo decir con franqueza 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[v] en su trono(AJ), 31 miró hacia el futuro y habló de la resurrección de Cristo[w], que ni fue abandonado en el Hades[x], ni Su carne sufrió[y] corrupción(AK).
32 »A este Jesús resucitó Dios(AL), de lo cual todos nosotros somos testigos(AM). 33 Así que, exaltado a[z] la diestra de Dios(AN), y habiendo recibido del Padre la promesa(AO) del Espíritu Santo(AP), ha derramado(AQ) esto que ustedes ven y oyen. 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 ustedes crucificaron(AT), Dios lo ha hecho Señor y Cristo[aa](AU)».
Efectos del sermón de Pedro
37 Al oír esto, conmovidos profundamente[ab], dijeron a Pedro y a los demás apóstoles: «Hermanos[ac], ¿qué haremos(AV)?». 38 Entonces Pedro les dijo: «Arrepiéntanse(AW) y sean bautizados(AX) cada uno de ustedes en el nombre de Jesucristo para perdón de sus pecados, y recibirán el don del Espíritu Santo. 39 Porque la promesa es para ustedes y para sus hijos(AY) y para todos los que están lejos(AZ), para tantos como el Señor nuestro Dios llame».
40 Y Pedro, con muchas otras palabras testificaba(BA) solemnemente y les exhortaba diciendo: «Sean salvos de esta perversa generación(BB)». 41 Entonces los que habían recibido su palabra fueron bautizados; y se añadieron aquel día como 3,000 almas[ad](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[ae](BF).
Comunión de los creyentes
43 Sobrevino temor a toda persona; y muchos prodigios y señales[af](BG) se hacían por los apóstoles[ag]. 44 Todos los que habían creído estaban juntos y tenían todas las cosas en común(BH); 45 vendían 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[ah] 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).
