Acts:8:2-25

acv@Acts:8:2 @ And devout men arranged to bury Stephen, and they made great lamentation over him.

acv@Acts:8:3 @ But Saul was ravaging the church, entering from house to house. Dragging both men and women, he gave them over to prison.

acv@Acts:8:4 @ Indeed therefore those who were scattered abroad passed through proclaiming the good-news, the word.

acv@Acts:8:5 @ And Philip, who went down to a city of Samaria, proclaimed the Christ to them.

acv@Acts:8:6 @ And the multitudes unanimously heeded the things that were spoken by Philip during their listening and seeing the signs that he did.

acv@Acts:8:7 @ For of many of those who had unclean spirits, they came out, crying in a great voice. And many who were paralyzed, and who were lame, were healed.

acv@Acts:8:8 @ And there became great joy in that city.

acv@Acts:8:9 @ But a certain man in the city, Simon by name, was formerly practicing sorcery, and fascinating the nation of Samaria, saying himself to be some great man,

acv@Acts:8:10 @ to whom they gave heed, from small to great, saying, This man is the great power of God.

acv@Acts:8:11 @ And they heeded him, because he facinated them for a considerable time with the sorceries.

acv@Acts:8:12 @ But when they believed Philip preaching good news, the things about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were immersed, both men and women.

acv@Acts:8:13 @ And Simon himself also believed. And after being immersed, he was continuing with Philip. And seeing miracles and signs occurring, he was astonished.

acv@Acts:8:14 @ Now when the apostles at Jerusalem heard that Samaria has received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them,

acv@Acts:8:15 @ who, when they came down, prayed for them, so that they might receive Holy Spirit,

acv@Acts:8:16 @ for it was not yet fallen upon any of them. They were only immersed in the name of the Christ Jesus.

acv@Acts:8:17 @ Then they laid hands on them, and they received Holy Spirit.

acv@Acts:8:18 @ Now when Simon saw that the Holy Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he brought money to them,

acv@Acts:8:19 @ saying, Give me also this power, so that on whomever I lay hands, he may receive Holy Spirit.

acv@Acts:8:20 @ But Peter said to him, Thy silver with thee, may it be for destruction, because thou thought to obtain the gift of God by money.

acv@Acts:8:21 @ There is no part nor lot for thee in this matter, for thy heart is not straight in the sight of God.

acv@Acts:8:22 @ Repent therefore from this thine evil, and beg God, if perhaps the thought of thy heart will be forgiven thee.

acv@Acts:8:23 @ For I perceive that thou are in the gall of bitterness and the bond of unrighteousness.

acv@Acts:8:24 @ And having answered, Simon said, Beg ye to the Lord for me, so that none of which things ye have spoken may come upon me.

acv@Acts:8:25 @ Indeed therefore, having solemnly testified and spoken the word of the Lord, they returned to Jerusalem, and preached the good-news in many villages of the Samaritans.
