ABU(i)
14 And the apostles in Jerusalem, hearing that Samaria has received the word of God, sent to them Peter and John;
15 who, having come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit;
16 for he had not yet fallen upon any of them; but they had only been immersed in the name of the Lord Jesus.
17 Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
18 And Simon, seeing that through the laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Spirit was given, offered them money,
19 saying: Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Spirit.
20 But Peter said to him: Thy money perish with thee; because thou didst think to obtain the gift of God with money:
21 Thou hast no part nor lot in this matter; for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.
22 Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray the Lord, if perhaps the thought of thy heart shall be forgiven thee.
23 For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and the bond of iniquity.
24 And Simon answering, said: Pray ye to the Lord for me, that none of the things which ye have spoken come upon me.
25 They, therefore, having testified and spoken the word of the Lord, were returning to Jerusalem, and publishing the good news to many villages of the Samaritans.
