2:1When the fyfty daye was come, they were all with one accorde together in one place.
2:2And sodainly there came a sounde from heauen, as it had bene the comynge of a myghty wynd, and it filled al the housse where they sate.
2:3And there appeared vnto them clouen tounges, lyke as they had bene fyre, and it sate vpon eche of them,
2:4and they were all filled with the holye ghoste, and began to speake wyth other tounges, euen as the spyryte gaue them vtteraunce.
2:5And there were dwelling at Hierusalem Iewes, deuout men, whyche were of all nations vnder heauen.
2:6When thys was noysed aboute, the multitude came together & were astonied, because that euery man hearde them speake hys owne toung.
2:7They wondred all & merueyled sayinge among them selues: Behold are not al these which speake of Galile?
2:8And how heare we euery man his own tounge wherin we were borne?
2:9Parthians, Medes, and Elamites, and the inhabiters of Mesopotamia, of Iewry, and of Cappadocia, and of Ponthus and Asia,
2:10Phrysia, Pamphilia, and of Egypte, and of the parties of Libia, which is besyde Syren, and straungers of Rome, Iewes, and conuertes,
2:11Grekes, and Arabians: we haue heard them speake: wyth our owne tounges the great workes of God.
2:12They were all amased, and woundered saiynge one to another: what meaneth thys?
2:13Other mocked them sayinge: they are full of newe wyne.
2:14But Peter stepped forth wyth the eleuen, and lyfte vp his voyce, and sayed vnto them: Ye men of Iewrye, and all ye that inhabite Hierusalem: be thys knowen vnto you, and wyth youre eares heare my wordes.
2:15These art not drounke, as ye suppose, for it is yet but the thyrde houre of the day.
2:16But thys is that which was spoken by the Prophet Iohel:
2:17It shal be in the laste daies saith God, of my spirite: I wil pour out vpon all flesh. And your sonnes and daughters shal prophesie, & your youngmen shal se visions, and your oldmen shall dreame dreames.
2:18And on my seruauntes and on my handmaydens, I wyll pour out of my spirite in those dayes, and they shall prophesye.
2:19And I wyll shewe wounders in heauen aboue, and tokens in the earth beneth, bloude & fyre, and the vapoure of smoke.
2:20The sonne shalbe turned into darckenes, and the mone into bloude, before that greate and notable day of the Lorde come.
2:21And it shall be, that whosoeuer shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saued.
2:22Ye men of Israel heare these wordes: Iesus of Nazareth, a man approued of God amonge you wyth miracles, woundres, and signes whiche God dyd by hym in the middes of you, as ye your selues knowe:
2:23hym haue ye taken by the handes of vnryghtuous persons after he was delyuered by the determinate counsell and for knowledge of God, and haue crucifyed and slayne:
2:24whom God hath raysed vp and lowsed the sorowes of deathe, because it was vnpossible that he shoulde be holden of it.
2:25For Dauid speaketh of hym afore hand. I sawe the Lorde alwayes before me: For he is on my ryghte hande, that I shoulde not be moued.
2:26Therefore dyd my herte reioice, and my tounge was glad. Moreouer also my fleshe shall reste in hope,
2:27because thou wylt not leaue my soule in hel, neyther wylte suffer thine holy, to se corruption.
2:28Thou hast shewed me the wayes of lyfe, and shalte make me full of ioye, wt thy countenaunce.
2:29Men and brethren, let me frely speake vnto you of the patriarche Dauid: For he is both dead and buryed, and hys sepulchre remaineth wyth vs vnto this daye.
2:30Therfore seiyng he was a Prophet, and knew that God had sworne wyth an othe to hym, that the fruyte of hys loynes shoulde sit on hys seat (in that Christ shoulde ryse agayne in the flesh)
2:31he sawe before: and spake of the resurreccion of Christ, that hys soule shoulde not be lefte in hell: neyther hys fleshe should se corruption.
2:32Thys Iesus hath God raised vp wher of we all are witnesses.
2:33Sence nowe that he by the ryght hand of God is exalted, and hath receiued of the father the promyse of the holy ghost, he hath shed forth, that whyche ye now se and heare.
2:34For Dauid is not ascended into heauen: but he sayd: The Lord said to my Lord, syt on my ryght hande
2:35vntyll I make thy fooes thy fote stole.
2:36So therefore let all the house of Israell knowe for a surety, that God hath made the same Iesus whom ye haue crucifyed, bothe Lord and Christe.
2:37When they hearde this, they were prycked in their hertes, and sayd vnto Peter and vnto the other Apostles. Ye men and brethren, what shall we do?
2:38Peter sayde vnto them: repent and be baptysed euerye one of you in the name of Iesus Christe for the remission of sinnes, and ye shall receiue the gifte of the holye ghost.
2:39For the promyse was made vnto you and to your chyldren, & to all that are a farre, euen as manye as the Lorde oure God shall call.
2:40And wyth manye other wordes bare he wytnes and exhorted them saiynge: Saue your selues from thys vntowarde generacion.
2:41Then they that gladlye receiued his preachinge, were baptysed, and the same daye there were added vnto them about thre thousande soules.
2:42And they continued in the Apostles doctrine and fellowshyppe, and in breakyng of bread, and in praier.
2:43And feare came ouer euery soule. And many woundres & signes were shewed by the Apostles.
2:44And all that beleued kept them selues together, and had all thinges commen,
2:45and solde their possessions and goodes, and departed them to all men as euery man had nede.
2:46And they contynued dayly wyth one accorde in the temple and brake bread in euerye house, and dyd eate their meate together, with gladnes and singlenes of her
2:47praisynge God, and had fauour wyth all the people: And the Lorde added to the congregacion dayly suche as should be saued.

 

2:1When the fyftye dayes were come to an ende, they were all with one accorde together in one place.
2:2And sodenly ther came a sounde from heauen, as it had bene the commynge of a myghty wynde, and it fylled all the house where they sate.
2:3And there appered vnto them clouen tonges, lyke as they had bene of fyer, and it sate vpon eache one of them:
2:4and they were all fylled with the holy goost, and beganne to speake with other tonges, euen as the same sprete gaue them vtteraunce.
2:5Ther were dwellyng at Ierusalem, Iewes, deuoute men, out of euery nacyon of them that are vnder heauen.
2:6When thys was noysed aboute, the multitude came together, & were astonnyed, because that euery man hearde them speake with his awne langage.
2:7They wondred all, and marueyled, sayinge among them selues: beholde, are not all these which speake, of Galile?
2:8And how heare we euery man his awne tong, wherin we were borne?
2:9Parthians, and Medes and Elamytes, and the inhabiters of Mesopotamia, and of Iury, and of Capadocia, of Ponthus and Asia,
2:10Phrygia, and Pamphilia, of Egypte, and of the partyes of Lybia which is besyd? Syren, and straungers of Rome, Iewes & Proselites.
2:11Grekes and Arabians: we haue herd them speake in oure awne tonges the greate worckes of God.
2:12They were all amased, and wondred sayinge one to another: what meaneth this?
2:13Other mocked, sayinge: these men are full of new wyne.
2:14But Peter stepped forth with the eleuen, and lyft vp his voyce, and sayde vnto them: Ye men of Iewrye, and all ye that dwell at Ierusalem: be this knowen vnto you, & with youre eares heare my wordes.
2:15For these are not droncken, as ye suppose, seynge it is but the thyrde houre of the daye.
2:16But this it that which was spoken by the Prophete Iohel:
2:17And it shalbe in the last dayes, sayth God: of my sprete I wyll poore out vpon all flesshe. And youre sonnes & youre daughters shall prophesy, and youre yonge men shall se vysyons, and youre olde men shall dreame dreames.
2:18And on my seruauntes, & on my hande maydens I wyll poore out of my sprete in those dayes, and they shall prophesye.
2:19And I wyll shewe wonders in heauen aboue, and tokens in the erth beneth, bloud and fyre and the vapour of smoke.
2:20The sunne shalbe turned into darcknes, & the moone into bloude, before that great and notable daye of the Lorde come.
2:21And it shall come to passe, that whosoeuer shall call on the name of the Lorde, shalbe saued.
2:22Ye men of Israel, heare these wordes: Iesus of Nazareth a man aproued of God amonge you with myracles, wonders and sygnes, which God dyd by hym in the myddes of you (as ye youre selues knowe)
2:23hym haue ye taken by the handes of vnryghtewes persones, after he was delyuered by the determinat counsell & foreknowledge of God, & haue crucifyed and slayne him:
2:24whom God hath raysed vp, & loosed the sorowes of deeth, because it was vnpossible, that he shulde be holden of it.
2:25For Dauid speaketh of him. A fore hande I sawe God alwayes before me: for he is on my ryght hande, that I shulde not be moued.
2:26Therfore dyd my hert reioyce, & my tonge was glad. Moreouer also my flesshe shall rest in hope,
2:27because thou wilt not leaue my soule in hell, nether wilt thou suffre thine holye to se corrupcion.
2:28Thou hast shewed me the wayes of lyfe, thou shalt make me full of ioye with thy countenaunce.
2:29Ye men and brethren, let me frely speake vnto you of the patriarke Dauid: For he is both deed and buryed, and hys sepulchre remayneth with vs vnto this daye.
2:30Therfore, seinge he was a Prophet, and knewe that God had sworne with an othe to him, that Christ (as concerninge the flessh) shulde come of the frute of his loynes, and on hys seat,
2:31he knowyng this before, spake of the resurreccyon of Chryst, that his soule shulde not be left in hell: nether hys flesshe shulde se corrupcyon.
2:32This Iesus hath God raysed vp, wherof we all are witnesses.
2:33Sence now that he by the ryght hande of God exalted is, and hath receaued of the father the promyse of the holy Goost, he hath sheed forth thys which ye now se and heare.
2:34For Dauid is not ascendyd into heuen: but he sayeth: The Lord sayde to my Lorde: syt thou on my ryght hand,
2:35vntyll I make thy fooes thy fote stole.
2:36So therfore, let all the house of Israel knowe for a suerty, that God hath made that same Iesus (whom ye haue crucified) Lorde and Chryst.
2:37When they hearde this, they were pricked in their hertes, and sayd vnto Peter, & vnto the other Apostles: Ye men & brethren what shall we do?
2:38Peter sayde vnto them: repent of youre synnes, and be baptysed euery one of you in the name of Iesus Chryst for the remission of synnes, and ye shall receaue the gyfte of the holy goost.
2:39For the promyse was made vnto you and to youre chyldren, and to all that are a farre of, euen as many as the Lorde oure God shall call.
2:40And with many other wordes bare he witnes, and exhorted them, sayinge: Saue youre selues from this vntowarde generacion.
2:41Then they that gladly receaued his preachinge, were baptised: and the same daye, ther were added vnto them aboute thre thousande soules.
2:42And they continued in the Apostles doctrine and felowshyp, & in breakynge of bread, and in prayers.
2:43And feare came ouer euery soule. And many wondres & signes were shewed by the Apostles.
2:44And all that beleued, kept them selues together, & had all thynges commen,
2:45and solde their possessions and goodes, and parted them to all men, as euery man had nede.
2:46And they continued dayly with one accorde in the temple, & brake bread from house to house, & dyd eate their meate together, wt gladnes & singlenes of hert,
2:47praysinge God, and had fauour with all the people. And the Lorde added to the congregacion dayly, soch as shulde be saued.

 

2:1And when the day of Pentecost was come, they were al with one accord in one place.
2:2And suddenly there came a sounde from heauen, as of a russhing and mightie winde, and it filled all the house where they sate.
2:3And there appeared vnto them clouen tongues, like fire, and it sate vpon eche of them.
2:4And they were all filled with the holy Ghost, and began to speake with other tongues, as the Spirit gaue them vtterance.
2:5And there were dwelling at Hierusalem Iewes, men that feared God, of euery nation vnder heauen.
2:6Nowe when this was noised, the multitude came together and were astonied, because that euery man heard them speake his owne language.
2:7And they wondered al, and marueiled, saying among themselues, Beholde, are not all these which speake, of Galile?
2:8How then heare we euery man our owne language, wherein we were borne?
2:9Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the inhabitants of Mesopotamia, and of Iudea, and of Cappadocia, of Pontus, and Asia,
2:10And of Phrygia, and Pamphylia, of Egypt, and of the partes of Libya, which is beside Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, and Iewes, and Proselytes,
2:11Creetes, and Arabians: wee hearde them speake in our owne tongues the wonderful works of God.
2:12They were all then amased, and douted, saying one to another, What may this be?
2:13And others mocked, and saide, They are full of newe wine.
2:14But Peter standing with ye Eleuen, lift vp his voice, and said vnto them, Ye men of Iudea, and ye all that inhabite Hierusalem, be this knowen vnto you, and hearken vnto my woordes.
2:15For these are not drunken, as yee suppose, since it is but the third houre of the day.
2:16But this is that, which was spoken by the Prophet Ioel,
2:17And it shalbe in the last daies, saith God, I wil powre out of my Spirite vpon al flesh, and your sonnes, and your daughters shall prophecie, and your yong men shall see visions, and your old men shall dreame dreames.
2:18And on my seruauntes, and on mine handmaides I will powre out of my Spirite in those daies, and they shall prophecie.
2:19And I wil shew wonders in heauen aboue, and tokens in the earth beneath, blood, and fire, and the vapour of smoke.
2:20The Sunne shalbe turned into darkenesse, and the moone into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come.
2:21And it shalbe, that whosoeuer shall call on the Name of the Lord, shalbe saued.
2:22Yee men of Israel, heare these woordes, JESUS of Nazareth, a man approued of God among you with great workes, and wonders, and signes, which God did by him in the middes of you, as yee your selues also knowe:
2:23Him, I say, being deliuered by the determinate counsell, and foreknowledge of God, after you had taken, with wicked handes you haue crucified and slaine.
2:24Whome God hath raised vp, and loosed the sorrowes of death, because it was vnpossible that he should be holden of it.
2:25For Dauid sayeth concerning him, I beheld the Lord alwaies before me: for hee is at my right hand, that I should not be shaken.
2:26Therefore did mine heart reioyce, and my tongue was glad, and moreouer also my flesh shall rest in hope,
2:27Because thou wilt not leaue my soule in graue, neither wilt suffer thine Holy one to see corruption.
2:28Thou hast shewed me the waies of life, and shalt make me full of ioy with thy countenance.
2:29Men and brethren, I may boldly speake vnto you of the Patriarke Dauid, that hee is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre remaineth with vs vnto this day.
2:30Therefore, seeing hee was a Prophet, and knewe that God had sworne with an othe to him, that of the fruite of his loynes hee woulde raise vp Christ concerning the flesh, to set him vpon his throne,
2:31Hee knowing this before, spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soule shoulde not bee left in graue, neither his flesh shoulde see corruption.
2:32This Iesus hath God raised vp, whereof we all are witnesses.
2:33Since then that he by the right hande of God hath bene exalted, and hath receiued of his Father the promise of the holy Ghost, hee hath shed foorth this which yee nowe see and heare.
2:34For Dauid is not ascended into heauen, but he sayth, The Lord sayd to my Lord, Sit at my right hande,
2:35Vntill I make thine enemies thy footestoole.
2:36Therefore, let all the house of Israel know for a suretie, that God hath made him both Lord, and Christ, this Iesus, I say, whome yee haue crucified.
2:37Now when they heard it, they were pricked in their heartes, and said vnto Peter and the other Apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we doe?
2:38Then Peter said vnto them, Amend your liues, and bee baptized euery one of you in the Name of Iesus Christ for the remission of sinnes: and ye shall receiue the gift of the holy Ghost.
2:39For the promise is made vnto you, and to your children, and to all that are a farre off, euen as many as the Lord our God shall call.
2:40And with many other words he besought and exhorted them, saying, Saue your selues from this froward generation.
2:41Then they that gladly receiued his word, were baptized: and the same day there were added to the Church about three thousand soules.
2:42And they continued in the Apostles doctrine, and fellowship, and breaking of bread, and prayers.
2:43And feare came vpon euery soule: and many wonders and signes were done by ye Apostles.
2:44And all that beleeued, were in one place, and had all things common.
2:45And they sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all me, as euery one had need.
2:46And they continued dayly with one accord in the Temple, and breaking bread at home, did eate their meate together with gladnesse and singlenesse of heart,
2:47Praysing God, and had fauour with all the people: and the Lord added to the Church from day to day, such as should be saued.
