Acts - Chapter: 2


2:1	When the fyftye dayes were come to an ende, they were all with one accorde together in one place.
2:2	And 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.
2:3	And there appered vnto them clouen tonges, lyke as they had bene of fyer, and it sate vpon eache one of them:
2:4	and they were all fylled with the holy goost, and beganne to speake with other tonges, euen as the same sprete gaue them vtteraunce.
2:5	Ther were dwellyng at Ierusalem, Iewes, deuoute men, out of euery nacyon of them that are vnder heauen.
2:6	When thys was noysed aboute, the multitude came together, & were astonnyed, because that euery man hearde them speake with his awne langage.
2:7	They wondred all, and marueyled, sayinge among them selues: beholde, are not all these which speake, of Galile?
2:8	And how heare we euery man his awne tong, wherin we were borne?
2:9	Parthians, and Medes and Elamytes, and the inhabiters of Mesopotamia, and of Iury, and of Capadocia, of Ponthus and Asia,
2:10	Phrygia, and Pamphilia, of Egypte, and of the partyes of Lybia which is besyd? Syren, and straungers of Rome, Iewes & Proselites.
2:11	Grekes and Arabians: we haue herd them speake in oure awne tonges the greate worckes of God.
2:12	They were all amased, and wondred sayinge one to another: what meaneth this?
2:13	Other mocked, sayinge: these men are full of new wyne.
2:14	But 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.
2:15	For these are not droncken, as ye suppose, seynge it is but the thyrde houre of the daye.
2:16	But this it that which was spoken by the Prophete Iohel:
2:17	And 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.
2:18	And on my seruauntes, & on my hande maydens I wyll poore out of my sprete in those dayes, and they shall prophesye.
2:19	And I wyll shewe wonders in heauen aboue, and tokens in the erth beneth, bloud and fyre and the vapour of smoke.
2:20	The sunne shalbe turned into darcknes, & the moone into bloude, before that great and notable daye of the Lorde come.
2:21	And it shall come to passe, that whosoeuer shall call on the name of the Lorde, shalbe saued.
2:22	Ye 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)
2:23	hym 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:
2:24	whom God hath raysed vp, & loosed the sorowes of deeth, because it was vnpossible, that he shulde be holden of it.
2:25	For 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.
2:26	Therfore dyd my hert reioyce, & my tonge was glad. Moreouer also my flesshe shall rest in hope,
2:27	because thou wilt not leaue my soule in hell, nether wilt thou suffre thine holye to se corrupcion.
2:28	Thou hast shewed me the wayes of lyfe, thou shalt make me full of ioye with thy countenaunce.
2:29	Ye 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.
2:30	Therfore, 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,
2:31	he knowyng this before, spake of the resurreccyon of Chryst, that his soule shulde not be left in hell: nether hys flesshe shulde se corrupcyon.
2:32	This Iesus hath God raysed vp, wherof we all are witnesses.
2:33	Sence 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.
2:34	For Dauid is not ascendyd into heuen: but he sayeth: The Lord sayde to my Lorde: syt thou on my ryght hand,
2:35	vntyll I make thy fooes thy fote stole.
2:36	So 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.
2:37	When they hearde this, they were pricked in their hertes, and sayd vnto Peter, & vnto the other Apostles: Ye men & brethren what shall we do?
2:38	Peter 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.
2:39	For 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.
2:40	And with many other wordes bare he witnes, and exhorted them, sayinge: Saue youre selues from this vntowarde generacion.
2:41	Then they that gladly receaued his preachinge, were baptised: and the same daye, ther were added vnto them aboute thre thousande soules.
2:42	And they continued in the Apostles doctrine and felowshyp, & in breakynge of bread, and in prayers.
2:43	And feare came ouer euery soule. And many wondres & signes were shewed by the Apostles.
2:44	And all that beleued, kept them selues together, & had all thynges commen,
2:45	and solde their possessions and goodes, and parted them to all men, as euery man had nede.
2:46	And 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,
2:47	praysinge God, and had fauour with all the people. And the Lorde added to the congregacion dayly, soch as shulde be saued.

2:7	And alle weren astonyed, and wondriden, and seiden togidere, Whether not alle these that speken ben men of Galyle,
2:8	and hou herden we ech man his langage in which we ben borun?
2:9	Parthi, and Medi, and Elamyte, and thei that dwellen at Mesopotami, Judee, and Capodosie, and Ponte,
2:10	and Asie, Frigie, and Pamfilie, Egipt, and the parties of Libie, that is aboue Sirenen, and `comelingis Romayns, and Jewis,
2:11	and proselitis, men of Crete, and of Arabie, we han herd hem spekynge in oure langagis the grete thingis of God.
2:12	And alle weren astonyed, and wondriden, `and seiden togidere, What wole this thing be?

2:14	But Petre stood with the enleuene, and reiside vp his vois, and spak to hem, Ye Jewis, and alle that dwellen at Jerusalem, be this knowun to you, and with eris perseyue ye my wordis.
2:15	For not as ye wenen, these ben dronkun, whanne it is the thridde our of the dai;
2:16	but this it is, that was seid bi the prophete Johel,
2:17	And it schal be in the laste daies, the Lord seith, Y schal helde out my spirit on ech fleisch; and youre sones and youre douytris schulen prophesie, and youre yonge men schulen se visiouns, and youre eldris schulen dreme sweuenes.
2:18	And on my seruauntis and myn handmaidens in tho daies Y schal schede out of my spirit, and thei schulen prophecie.
2:19	And Y schal yyue grete wondris in heuene aboue, and signes in erthe bynethe, blood, and fier, and heete of smoke.
2:20	The sunne schal be turned in to derknessis, and the moone in to blood, bifor that the greet and the opyn dai of the Lord come.
2:21	And it schal be, ech man which euere schal clepe to help the name of the Lord, schal be saaf.
2:22	Ye men of Israel, here ye these wordis. Jhesu of Nazareth, a man preued of God bifor you bi vertues, and wondris, and tokenes, which God dide bi hym in the myddil of you,
2:23	as ye witen, ye turmentiden, and killiden hym bi the hoondis of wyckid men, bi counseil determyned and bitakun bi the forknouwyng of God.
2:24	Whom God reiside, whanne sorewis of helle weren vnboundun, bi that that it was impossible that he were holdun of it.
2:25	For Dauid seith of hym, Y saiy afer the Lord bifore me euermore, for he is on my riythalf, that Y be not mouyd.
2:26	For this thing myn herte ioiede, and my tunge made ful out ioye, and more ouere my fleisch schal reste in hope.
2:27	For thou schalt not leeue my soule in helle, nethir thou schalt yiue thin hooli to se corrupcioun.
2:28	Thou hast maad knowun to me the weies of lijf, thou schalt fille me in myrthe with thi face.
2:29	Britheren, be it leueful boldli to seie to you of the patriark Dauid, for he is deed and biried, and his sepulcre is among vs in to this dai.
2:30	Therfore whanne he was a prophete, and wiste, that with a greet ooth God hadde sworn to hym, that of the fruyt of his leende schulde oon sitte on his seete,

2:32	God reiside this Jhesu, to whom we alle ben witnessis.
2:33	Therfor he was enhaunsid bi the riythoond of God, and thorouy the biheest of the Hooli Goost that he took of the fadir, he schedde out this spirit, that ye seen and heren.
2:34	For Dauid stiede not in to heuene; but he seith, The Lord seide to my Lord,

2:36	Therfor moost certeynli wite al the hous of Israel, that God made hym bothe Lord and Crist, this Jhesu, whom ye crucefieden.
2:37	Whanne thei herden these thingis, thei weren compunct in herte; and thei seiden to Petre and othere apostlis, Britheren, what schulen we do?
2:38	And Petre seide to hem, Do ye penaunce, and eche of you be baptisid in the name of Jhesu Crist, in to remissioun of youre synnes; and ye schulen take the yifte of the Hooli Goost.
2:39	For the biheest is to you, and to youre sones, and to alle that ben fer, which euer oure Lord God hath clepid.
2:40	Also with othere wordis ful many he witnesside to hem, and monestide hem, and seide, Be ye sauyd fro this schrewid generacioun.

2:1	And whan the Whit sondaye was fulfylled, they were all with one acorde together in one place.
2:2	And sodenly there came a sounde from heauen, as it had bene the comynge of a mightie wynde, and it fylled the whole house where they sat.
2:3	And there appeared vnto them clouen tunges, like as they had bene of fyre. And he sat vpon ech one of them,
2:4	and they were all fylled with the holy goost. And they beganne to preach with other tunges, euen as the sprete gaue them vtteraunce.
2:5	There were dwellinge at Ierusalem Iewes, men that feared God, out of euery nacion that is vnder heauen.
2:6	Now whan this voyce came to passe, the multitude came together, and were astonyed: For euery one herde, that they spake with his awne tunge.
2:7	They wondred all and marueyled, and sayde amonge them selues: Beholde, are not all these which speake, of Galile?
2:8	How heare we the euery one his awne tunge, wherin we were borne?
2:9	Parthians and Medes, and Elamites, and we that dwell in Mesopotamia, and in Iewry and Capadocia, Pontus, and Asia,
2:10	Phrigia and Pamphilia, Egipte, and in the partes of Lybia by Cyren, and straungers of Rome, Iewes and Proselytes,
2:11	Cretes and Arabians: we heare them speake with oure awne tunges the greate workes of God.
2:12	They were all amased, and wondred, and sayde one to another: What wil this be?
2:13	But other mocked them, and sayde: They are full of swete wyne.
2:14	Then stode Peter vp with the eleuen, and lift vp his voyce, and sayde vnto them: Ye men of Iewry, and all ye that dwell at Ierusale, be this knowne vnto you, and let my wordes entre in at youre eares.
2:15	For these are not dronken, as ye suppose, for it is yet but the thirde houre of ye daye:
2:16	but this is it, that was spoke before by the prophet Ioel:
2:17	And it shal come to passe in the last dayes, sayeth God, I will poure out of my sprete vpon all flesh, and youre sonnes and youre doughters shal prophecye, and youre yonge men shal se visions and youre olde men shall dreame dreames,
2:18	and on my seruauntes and on my handmaydens wyll I poure out of my sprete in those dayes, & they shal prophecye.
2:19	And I wil shewe wonders in heauen aboue, and tokens on the earth beneth, bloude and fyre, and the vapoure of smoke.
2:20	The Sonne shalbe turned in to darknesse, and the Moone in to bloude, before that greate and notable daye of the LORDE come.
2:21	And it shall come to passe, Who so euer shal call vpo the name of the LORDE, shalbe saued.
2:22	Ye men of Israel, heare these wordes: Iesus of Nazareth, ye man approued of God amonge you with miracles, and wonders and tokens, which God dyd by him in the myddes amonge you, as ye yor selues knowe also,
2:23	him (after that he was delyuered by the determinate councell and foreknowlege of God) haue ye taken by the handes of vnrighteous personnes, and crucifyed him, & slayne him,
2:24	who God hath raysed vp, and lowsed the sorowes of death, for so moch as it was vnpossyble that he shulde be holden of it.
2:25	For Dauid speaketh of him: Afore honde haue I set the LORDE allwayes before me, for he is on my right hode, that I shulde not be moued.
2:26	Therfore dyd my hert reioyse, and my tunge was glad: For my flesh also shal rest in hope.
2:27	For thou shalt not leaue my soule in hell, nether shalt thou suffer yi Holy to se corrupcion.
2:28	Thou hast shewed me the wayes of life, thou shalt make me full of ioye with thy countenaunce.
2:29	Ye men and brethren, let me frely speake vnto you of the Patryarke Dauid: For he is deed and buried, and his sepulcre is with vs vnto this daye.
2:30	Wherfore now seinge yt he was a prophet, and knewe that God had promised him with an ooth, that the frute of his loynes shulde syt on his seate,
2:31	he sawe it before, and spake of the resurreccion of Christ: for his soule was not left in hell, nether hath his flesh sene corrupcion.
2:32	This Iesus hath God raysed vp, wherof we all are witnesses.
2:33	Seynge now that he by the right hande of God is exalted, and hath receaued of ye father ye promyse of the holy goost, he hath shed forth this, that ye se and heare.
2:34	For Dauid is not ascended in to heauen, but he sayde: The LORDE sayde vnto my LORDE: Syt thou on my righte hande,
2:35	vntyll I make thine enemies yi fote stole.
2:36	So therfore let all the house of Israel knowe for a suertye, yt God hath made this same Iesus (whom ye haue crucified) LORDE and Christ.
2:37	Whan they herde this, their hert pricked them, and they sayde vnto Peter and to the other Apostles: Ye men and brethre, What shal we do?
2:38	Peter sayde onto them: Amede youre selues, and let euery one of you be baptysed in the name of Iesus Christ, for the remyssion of synnes, and ye shal receaue the gifte of the holy goost.
2:39	For this promyse was made vnto you and youre children, and to all that are farre of, who so euer the LORDE oure God shal call.
2:40	And wt many other wordes bare he witnesse, and exorted them, and sayde: Saue youre selues from this vntowarde generacion.
2:41	They that gladly receaued his preachinge, were baptysed, & the same daye there were added vnto them aboute thre thousande soules.
2:42	They contynued in the Apostles doctryne, and in the felashippe, and in breakynge of bred, and in prayer.
2:43	And feare came vpo euery soule, and many wonders and tokens were done by ye Apostles.
2:44	But all they that beleued, were together, and had all thinges commen.
2:45	They solde their goodes and possessions, and parted them out amonge all, acordinge as euery ma had nede.
2:46	And they contynued daylie with one acorde in the teple, and brake bred in euery house: they toke their meate with ioye & synglenesse of hert,
2:47	praysinge God, and had fauoure with all ye people. And the LORDE added to the congregacion daylie soch as shulde be saued.
