Kisah Para Rasul 2:8

2:8 And how is it that each one of us hears them ³  in our own native language? ⁴ 

[16:5]  ¹ tn Heb “came to.” The form of the verb in the MT is odd. Some prefer to read וַיַּבֹא (vayyavo’), preterite with vav consecutive) rather than וּבָא (uva’), apparently perfect with vav), but this is probably an instance where the narrative offline vÿqatal construction introduces a new scene.

[16:5]  ² tn Heb “And look, from there a man was coming out from the clan of the house of Saul and his name was Shimei son of Gera, continually going out and cursing.”

[2:8]  ³ tn Grk “we hear them, each one of us.”

[2:8]  ⁴ tn Grk “in our own language in which we were born.”
