Original text and translations

Latin text Factus est repénte de caelo sonus, adveniéntus spíritus veheméntis, allelúia: et replévit totam domum ubi erant apóstoli, allelúia; et repléti sunt omnes Spíritu Sancto, et coepérunt loqui, allelúia. Spíritus Dómini replévit orbem terrárum, alleluia.

English translation Suddenly, there came a sound from heaven, like the rush of a mighty wind, alleluia: and it filled the whole house where the apostles were, alleluia; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak, alleluia. The Spirit of the Lord has filled the whole world, alleluia.
