Acts 11:15-17
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
15 When I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them just as He did on us at the beginning.(A)
16 Then I recalled the declaration of the Lord, how He said, John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with ([a]be placed in, introduced into) the Holy Spirit.
17 If then God gave to them the same Gift [equally] as He gave to us when we believed in (adhered to, trusted in, and relied on) the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I and what power or authority had I to interfere or hinder or forbid or withstand God?

New International Version
15 “As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit came on(A) them as he had come on us at the beginning.(B) 16 Then I remembered what the Lord had said: ‘John baptized with[a] water,(C) but you will be baptized with[b] the Holy Spirit.’(D) 17 So if God gave them the same gift(E) he gave us(F) who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I to think that I could stand in God’s way?”
