Peter's Sermon at Pentecost

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.

When Moses saw it, he was amazed at the sight, and as he drew near to look, there came the voice of the Lord:

But they cried out with a loud voice and stopped their ears and rushed together at him.

And falling to his knees he cried out with a loud voice, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep.

For unclean spirits, crying out with a loud voice, came out of many who had them, and many who were paralyzed or lame were healed.

And falling to the ground, he heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?”

The men who were traveling with him stood speechless, hearing the voice but seeing no one.

And there came a voice to him: “Rise, Peter; kill and eat.”

And the voice came to him again a second time, “What God has made clean, do not call common.”

And I heard a voice saying to me, ‘Rise, Peter; kill and eat.’

But the voice answered a second time from heaven, ‘What God has made clean, do not call common.’

Recognizing Peter's voice, in her joy she did not open the gate but ran in and reported that Peter was standing at the gate.

said in a loud voice, “Stand upright on your feet.” And he sprang up and began walking.

But Paul cried with a loud voice, “Do not harm yourself, for we are all here.”

But when they recognized that he was a Jew, for about two hours they all cried out with one voice, “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!”

And I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?’

Now those who were with me saw the light but did not understand the voice of the one who was speaking to me.

And he said, ‘The God of our fathers appointed you to know his will, to see the Righteous One and to hear a voice from his mouth;

And when we had all fallen to the ground, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew language, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.’

And as he was saying these things in his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, “Paul, you are out of your mind; your great learning is driving you out of your mind.”
