⁴² And ^(A)he commanded us to preach to the people and to testify ^(B)that he is the one appointed by God to be judge ^(C)of the living and the dead. ^43 (D)To him ^(E)all the prophets bear witness that ^(F)everyone who believes in him receives ^(G)forgiveness of sins ^(H)through his name.”

The Holy Spirit Falls on the Gentiles

⁴⁴ While Peter was still saying these things, ^(I)the Holy Spirit fell on all who heard the word. ⁴⁵ And the believers from among ^(J)the circumcised who had come with Peter were amazed, because ^(K)the gift of the Holy Spirit ^(L)was poured out even on the Gentiles. ⁴⁶ For they were hearing them ^(M)speaking in tongues and extolling God. Then Peter declared, ^47 (N)“Can anyone withhold water for baptizing these people, who have received the Holy Spirit ^(O)just as we have?” ⁴⁸ And he ^(P)commanded them ^(Q)to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to remain for some days.
