Voice setup help

Read uses your browser’s device speech, without a provider key. Studio creates media through a paid provider using your own key. INjeel cannot install voices or guarantee any accent, language, or Syriac voice. System settings and voices exposed to a browser can differ.

iPhone and iPad: In Settings → Accessibility, look for Read & Speak → Voices (called Spoken Content on older versions). Choose a language and dialect. For downloadable enhanced voices, Apple also documents VoiceOver → Speech → Add New Language; choose a voice/quality and allow the download to finish on Wi-Fi. You do not need to enable VoiceOver to use INjeel. Apple’s current guide · iOS/iPadOS voice downloads

Android: Open Settings → Accessibility → Text-to-speech output. Choose the preferred engine and language; use its voice-data/download options where available. Names and paths vary by manufacturer/engine; search Settings for “text-to-speech” if needed. Google’s settings and voice-data guide

macOS: Apple menu → System Settings → Accessibility → Read & Speak. Choose System voice; open its additional voice controls to browse languages, country/region variants and downloadable voices. Wait until downloads finish, then choose the voice. Older versions may use Spoken Content. Apple’s Mac voice guide

Return here and reopen the voice selector. If new voices do not appear, refresh or reopen the app/browser. Select the voice and adjust Speed here; a system default need not override an explicit app selection. Android browsers may use their speech engine rather than a forced voice. Some voices use network services; availability and pronunciation depend on your device/browser, not the scripture’s historical pronunciation.

܀

And when the days of Pentecost were fulfilled, while they were all gathered as one,

2

܀

there came suddenly from heaven a sound like a strong wind, and the whole house where they were sitting was filled with it.

3

܀

And tongues appeared to them that were divided like fire, and they sat on each one of them.

4

܀

And they were all filled with the Ruach haKodesh, and they began to speak in tongue after tongue as the Ruach was giving them to speak.

5

܀

Now there were men dwelling in Urishlim who feared Elohim, Yehudaye from every people under heaven.

6

܀

And when that sound came, all the people gathered, and they were stirred because each one of them was hearing them speaking in their own tongues.

7

܀

They were all astonished and wondering as they said one to another, Are not all these who are speaking Galileans?

8

܀

How do we hear, each one, his own language in which we were born?

9

܀

Parthians and Medes and Elamites and those who dwell in Beth-Nahrin, Yehudaye and Cappadocians and those from the land of Pontus and of Asia,

10

܀

and those from the land of Phrygia and of Pamphylia and of Egypt and of the regions of Libya that are near Cyrene, and those who came from Rome, Yehudaye and proselytes,

11

܀

and those from Crete and Arabians. We hear them speaking in our own languages the wonders of Elohim.

12

܀

They were all wondering and astonished as they said one to another, What is this thing?

13

܀

But others were mocking them, saying, These have drunk new wine and are drunk.

14

܀

Afterwards Shimon Keefa stood up with the eleven apostles, raised his voice, and said to them, Men, Jews, and all who live in Urishlim, let this be known to you, and listen to my words.

15

܀

For these are not drunk, as you suppose, for it is only the third hour until now.

16

܀

But this is what was spoken by Yoel the prophet:

17

܀

It will be in the last days, says Elohim, I will pour out my Ruach on all flesh, and your sons and your daughters will prophesy, and your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams.

18

܀

And on my servants and on my handmaids I will pour out my Ruach in those days, and they will prophesy.

19

܀

And I will give signs in the heavens and mighty works on the earth, blood and fire and vapor of smoke.

20

܀

The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the great and fearful day of Master YHWH comes.

21

܀

And it will be that everyone who calls on the name of Master YHWH will live.

22

܀

Men, sons of Yisrael, hear these words: Y'shua the Natsraya, a man who was shown among you from Elohim by power and by signs and by mighty works, which Elohim did among you by his hand, as you yourselves know;

23

܀

this one, who was set apart for this by the foreknowledge and will of Elohim, you delivered into the hands of the wicked, and you crucified and killed.

24

܀

But Elohim raised him up and loosed the cords of Sheol, because it was not possible that he should be held in Sheol.

25

܀

For Dawid said concerning him: I was seeing my Master at all times, for he is at my right hand, that I will not be moved.

26

܀

Because of this my heart is glad and my glory rejoices, and also my body will dwell on hope.

27

܀

Because you will not leave my soul in Sheol, and you will not give your devout one to see corruption.

28

܀

You have revealed to me the path of life; you will fill me with gladness with your face.

29

܀

Men, brothers, it is allowed to speak openly to you about the head of the fathers Dawid, that he died and also was buried, and his tomb is with us until this day.

30

܀

For he was a prophet, and he knew that Elohim had sworn to him with an oath: From the fruit of your belly I will seat one on your throne.

31

܀

And he foresaw and spoke of the rising of the Mashiyach, that he was not left in Sheol, nor did his body see corruption.

32

܀

This Y'shua Elohim has given life to, and we all are his witnesses.

33

܀

And he is the one who was exalted at the right hand of Elohim, and received from the Father the promise of the Ruach haKodesh, and has poured out this gift which you see and hear.

34

܀

For Dawid did not go up to heaven, because he himself said: Master YHWH said to my Master, Sit at my right hand,

35

܀

until I place your enemies as a footstool for your feet.

36

܀

So let all the house of Yisrael know for certain that Elohim has made this Y'shua whom you crucified both Master YHWH and Mashiyach.

37

܀

And when they heard these things, they were cut in their heart, and they said to Shimon and to the rest of the apostles: Our brothers, what shall we do?

38

܀

Shimon said to them: Turn, and be immersed each one of you in the name of Master YHWH Y'shua for the forgiveness of sins, so that you may receive the gift of the Ruach haKodesh.1

  1. Study ܒܫܡܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܝܫܘܥ — “in the name of Master YHWH Y'shua.” The purpose is ܠܫܘܒܩܢ ܚܛܗܐ, “for the forgiveness of sins,” and the promise is ܡܘܗܒܬܐ, the gift of the Ruach haKodesh. The speaker is Shimon.
39

܀

For the promise is to you and to your children and to all those who are far off, those whom Elohim will call.

40

܀

And with many other words he was testifying to them and was entreating them, saying: Live from this crooked generation.

41

܀

And some of them readily received his word and believed and were immersed, and there were added on that day about three thousand souls.

42

܀

And they were continuing in the teaching of the apostles, and were sharing in prayer and in the breaking of the eucharist.

43

܀

And fear was on every soul, and many signs and mighty works were wrought by the hand of the apostles in Urishlim.

44

܀

And all those who believed were together, and everything that belonged to them was held in common.

45

܀

And those who had possessions were selling them and dividing to each one as he had need.

46

܀

And every day they continued in the temple with one soul, and at home they broke bread and took food rejoicing and in the simplicity of their heart.

47

܀

They were praising Elohim, having favor before all the people. And our Master was adding every day to the assembly those who were living.
