Travay 2
Haitian Creole Version
2 ¶ Lè jou Lapannkòt la rive, yo tout te reyini ansanm menm kote a.
2 Yo rete konsa, epi yon sèl bri sot nan syèl la tankou yon gwo van k'ap soufle; li plen tout kay kote yo te chita a.
3 Lè sa a, yo wè yon bann lang parèt tankou ti flanm dife ki separe yonn ak lòt epi ki al poze grenn pa grenn sou tèt yo chak.
4 Yo tout te vin anba pouvwa Sentespri, epi yo pran pale lòt lang dapre jan Lespri Bondye a t'ap fè yo pale.
5 ¶ Lè sa a, te gen yon bann jwif ki t'ap pase kèk jou lavil Jerizalèm. Se te moun devwe pou Bondye ki te soti nan tout peyi sou latè.
6 Lè yo tande bri a, yon kantite ladan yo sanble. Yo tout te sezi anpil paske yo t'ap tande moun yo pale nan lang peyi yo chak.
7 Yo pa t' manke sezi. Yo t'ap gade, yo t'ap di: Moun sa yo k'ap pale la a, apa moun Galile yo tout ye?
8 Ki jan nou fè tande y'ap pale nan lang peyi nou?
9 Nan nou la a gen moun Pat, moun Medi ak moun Elam, gen moun Mezopotami, moun Jide, moun Kapadòs, moun Pon ak moun Lazi.
10 Gen moun Friji, moun Panfili, moun Lejip, moun teritwa Libi ki toupre Sirèn. Genyen ki soti lavil Wòm.
11 Nan nou gen jwif, gen moun lòt nasyon ki te konvèti nan relijyon jwif yo, gen moun ki soti Lakrèt, gen moun Arabi tou. Ki jan nou fè tande yo ap pale lang nou, y'ap rakonte bèl bagay Bondye te fè?
12 Yo tout te sezi, yo pa t' konn sa pou yo te kwè. Yonn t'ap di lòt: Sa sa vle di?
13 Gen lòt moun menm ki t'ap pase yo nan rizib. Yo t'ap di: Moun sa yo sou.
14 ¶ Lè sa a, Pyè kanpe ansanm ak lòt onz apòt yo, li pale byen fò, li di foul moun yo konsa: Nou menm moun Jide ansanm ak nou tout k'ap pase kèk jou isit lavil Jerizalèm, nou fèt pou nou konnen sa. Koute sa m' pral di nou la a.
15 Moun sa yo pa sou jan nou kwè a. Se nevè dimaten li ye sèlman.
16 Men, sa pwofèt Joèl te fè konnen gen pou rive a, se sa k'ap pase koulye a:
17 Men sak pral rive nan dènye tan an: Se Bondye menm k'ap pale: M'ap vide Lespri m' sou tout moun sou latè. Pitit gason nou ak pitit fi nou yo va pale tankou pwofèt. Jenn gason nou yo va gen vizyon. Granmoun nou yo va fè rèv.
18 Wi, lè sa a, m'ap vide Lespri m' sou tout sèvitè m' yo, fi kou gason, epi y'a bay mesaj ki soti nan Bondye.
19 Mwen pral fè mèvèy parèt anwo nan syèl la, mwen pral fè mirak anba sou latè! Va gen san, dife ak gwo nwaj lafimen.
20 Solèy la pral vin tou nwa. Lalin lan pral vin wouj kou san, anvan jou Mèt la rive. Se va yon gwo jou, yon bèl jou tou!
21 Lè sa a nenpòt moun ki va rele non Bondye va delivre.
22 Nou menm moun laras Izrayèl, koute sa m' pral di nou la a: Jezi, moun Nazarèt la, se Bondye menm ki te voye l' paske nou te wè tout mirak, tout bèl bagay ak tout siy Bondye te ba l' pouvwa fè nan mitan nou. Sa se bagay nou tout konnen.
23 Yo te lage nonm sa a nan men nou, jan Bondye te vle l' la, dapre plan li te deja fè nan tèt li. Nou menm, nou fè touye l', nou fè yon bann mechan kloure l' sou yon kwa.
24 Men, Bondye fè l' leve vivan ankò, li delivre l' anba doulè lanmò a paske se pa t' posib pou lanmò te kenbe l' anba pouvwa li.
25 Men sa David te ekri sou li: Mwen te wè Bondye, Mèt la, tout tan devan je mwen. Paske li toujou bò kote m'. Anyen pa ka brannen m'.
26 Se poutèt sa kè m' kontan anpil, se pawòl kontantman ase ki nan bouch mwen. Menm kò mwen, m'ap poze l' avèk espwa nan Bondye.
27 Paske, ou p'ap kite m' kote mò yo ye a. Ou p'ap pèmèt moun k'ap sèvi ou la pouri anba tè.
28 Ou fè m' konnen tout chemen ki bay lavi a. M'ap kontan nèt paske ou toujou la avèk mwen.
29 Frè m' yo, pèmèt mwen pale kareman ak nou. David, zansèt nou an, mouri, yo antere l'. Tonm li la nan mitan nou jouk jòdi a.
30 Men, David te yon pwofèt, li te konnen sa Bondye te pwomèt la. Bondye te sèmante li t'ap fè yonn nan pitit li yo wa tankou li.
31 David te wè sa Bondye tapral fè a. Se konsa li te di Kris la te gen pou l' leve soti vivan nan lanmò lè l' di: Yo p'ap kite l' kote mò yo ye a. Kò li p'ap tounen pouriti.
32 Bondye fè Jezi sa a leve soti vivan; nou tout nou temwen bagay sa a.
33 Bondye fè l' moute nan syèl la vin sou bò dwat li, li resevwa Sentespri Papa a te pwomèt la, li vide l' sou nou. Enben, se sa n'ap wè, se sa n'ap tande koulye a.
34 Se pa David ki te moute nan syèl la. Men, li te di: Bondye te di Seyè mwen an: Chita la sou bò dwat mwen,
35 jouk tan mwen fè lènmi ou yo tounen yon ti ban pou lonje pye ou.
36 Tout pèp Izrayèl la fèt pou konnen sa byen: Jezi, nonm nou te kloure sou kwa a, se li menm Bondye fè Seyè, se li menm Bondye fè Kris la.
37 ¶ Lè pèp la tande pawòl sa yo, yo santi kè yo boulvèse. Yo mande Pyè ansanm ak lòt apòt yo: Frè nou yo, kisa pou nou fè?
38 Pyè reponn yo: Tounen vin jwenn Bondye, epi yonn apre lòt vin resevwa batèm nan non Jezikri, pou Bondye padonnen tout peche nou yo. Apre sa, n'a resevwa Sentespri, kado Bondye a.
39 Paske pwomès la, Bondye fè l' pou nou, pou pitit nou yo, pou tout moun ki byen lwen, pou tout moun Bondye, Mèt nou, va rele vin jwenn li.
40 Pyè t'ap di yo anpil lòt pawòl ankò pou l' te fè yo kwè, pou l' te ankouraje yo. Li t'ap di yo konsa: Sove tèt nou. Wete kò nou nan mitan moun pèvèti sa yo.
41 Anpil ladan yo te kwè sa Pyè t'ap di a, yo te resevwa batèm. Jou sa a, te gen twamil (3.000) moun konsa ki te mete tèt yo ansanm ak disip yo.
42 ¶ Yo pase tout tan yo ap koute sa apòt yo t'ap moutre yo, yo t'ap viv ansanm tankou frè yonn ak lòt, yo reyini pou separe pen an bay tout moun, epi yo t'ap lapriyè.
43 Tout moun te gen krentif devan kantite mirak ak bèl bagay apòt yo t'ap fè.
44 Tout moun ki te kwè yo t'ap viv ansanm yonn ak lòt. Yo te mete tou sa yo te genyen ansanm.
45 Yo vann tè yo ak tout byen yo, yo separe lajan an pami yo tout, dapre nesesite chak moun.
46 Toulejou, yo tout reyini ansanm nan tanp lan; yo te konn separe pen an bay tout moun nan kay yo, yo te manje ansanm avèk kè kontan san okenn pretansyon.
47 Yo t'ap fè lwanj Bondye. Tout moun te renmen yo. Chak jou Bondye t'ap mete lòt moun li t'ap delivre yo nan gwoup la.
Acts 2
English Standard Version
The Coming of the Holy Spirit
2 When (A)the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. 2 And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like (B)a mighty rushing wind, and (C)it filled the entire house where they were sitting. 3 And divided tongues (D)as of fire appeared to them and rested[a] on each one of them. 4 And they were all (E)filled with the Holy Spirit and began (F)to speak in other tongues (G)as the Spirit gave them utterance.
5 Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men from every nation under heaven. 6 And (H)at this sound the multitude came together, and they were bewildered, because each one was hearing them speak in his own language. 7 And (I)they were amazed and astonished, saying, “Are not all these who are speaking (J)Galileans? 8 And how is it that we hear, each of us in his own native language? 9 Parthians and (K)Medes and (L)Elamites and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, 10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, 11 both Jews and (M)proselytes, Cretans and Arabians—we hear them telling in our own tongues the mighty works of God.” 12 And (N)all were amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, “What does this mean?” 13 But others (O)mocking said, “They are filled with new wine.”
Peter's Sermon at Pentecost
14 But Peter, standing with the eleven, lifted up his voice and addressed them: “Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give ear to my words. 15 For these people are not drunk, as you suppose, (P)since it is only the third hour of the day.[b] 16 But this is what was uttered through the prophet Joel:
17 (Q)“‘And in the last days it shall be, God declares,
(R)that I will pour out my Spirit (S)on all flesh,
and your sons and (T)your daughters shall prophesy,
and your young men shall see visions,
and your old men shall dream dreams;
18 even on my male servants and female servants
in those days I will pour out my Spirit, and (U)they shall prophesy.
19 And I will show wonders in the heavens above
and signs on the earth below,
blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke;
20 (V)the sun shall be turned to darkness
and the moon to blood,
before (W)the day of the Lord comes, the great and magnificent day.
21 And it shall come to pass that (X)everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.’
22 “Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, (Y)a man attested to you by God (Z)with (AA)mighty works and wonders and signs that (AB)God did through him in your midst, as you yourselves know— 23 this Jesus,[c] (AC)delivered up according to (AD)the definite plan and (AE)foreknowledge of God, (AF)you crucified and killed by the hands of lawless men. 24 (AG)God raised him up, loosing the pangs of death, because (AH)it was not possible for him to be held by it. 25 For David says concerning him,
(AI)“‘I saw the Lord always before me,
for he is at my right hand that I may not be shaken;
26 therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced;
my flesh also will dwell (AJ)in hope.
27 For you will not abandon my soul to (AK)Hades,
(AL)or let your (AM)Holy One (AN)see corruption.
28 You have made known to me the paths of life;
you will make me full of gladness with your presence.’
29 “Brothers, I may say to you with confidence about (AO)the patriarch David (AP)that he both died and (AQ)was buried, and (AR)his tomb is with us to this day. 30 (AS)Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that (AT)God had sworn with an oath to him that he would set one of his descendants on his throne, 31 he foresaw and spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that (AU)he was not abandoned to Hades, nor did his flesh see corruption. 32 This Jesus (AV)God raised up, (AW)and of that we all are witnesses. 33 (AX)Being therefore (AY)exalted at the right hand of God, and having received from (AZ)the Father (BA)the promise of the Holy Spirit, (BB)he has poured out this that you yourselves are seeing and hearing. 34 For (BC)David did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself says,
(BD)“‘The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at my right hand,
35 until I make your enemies your footstool.”’
36 Let all the house of Israel therefore know for certain that (BE)God has made him (BF)both Lord and Christ, this Jesus (BG)whom you crucified.”
37 Now when (BH)they heard this they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, (BI)what shall we do?” 38 And Peter said to them, (BJ)“Repent and (BK)be baptized every one of you (BL)in the name of Jesus Christ (BM)for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive (BN)the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For (BO)the promise is for you and (BP)for your children and for all (BQ)who are far off, everyone (BR)whom the Lord our God calls to himself.” 40 And with many other words he bore witness and continued to exhort them, saying, (BS)“Save yourselves from this (BT)crooked generation.” 41 So those who received his word were baptized, and (BU)there were added that day about three thousand souls.
The Fellowship of the Believers
42 And (BV)they devoted themselves to the apostles' (BW)teaching and the (BX)fellowship, to (BY)the breaking of bread and the prayers. 43 And awe[d] came upon every soul, and (BZ)many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles. 44 And all who believed were together and (CA)had all things in common. 45 And (CB)they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need. 46 And day by day, (CC)attending the temple (CD)together and (CE)breaking bread in their homes, they received their food (CF)with glad and generous hearts, 47 praising God and (CG)having favor with all the people. And the Lord (CH)added to their number (CI)day by day those who (CJ)were being 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.

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.
