Acts 2:8
Wherein we were born - That is, as we say, in our native language; what is spoken where we were born.
6 And when this sound occurred, the amultitude 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 aGalileans?
8 And how is it that we hear, each in our own1 language in which we were born?
9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites, those dwelling in Mesopotamia, Judea and aCappadocia, 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 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.”
