CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹³ Now Simon, he also believes, and being baptized, was waiting on Philip. Besides, beholding the signs and great powerful deeds occurring, he is amazed." ¹⁴ Now the apostles in Jerusalem, hearing that Samaria has received the word of God, dispatch to them Peter and John, ¹⁵ who, descending, pray concerning them, so that they may be obtaining holy spirit, ¹⁶ for not as yet was it fallen on any of them, yet only, having been baptized, they belonged to the name of the Lord Jesus." ¹⁷ Then they place their hands on them, and they obtained holy spirit." ¹⁸ Yet Simon, perceiving that through the imposition of the hands of the apostles the spirit is being given, offers them money, ¹⁹ saying, "Give me also this authority, that on whomsoever I may be placing my hands, he may be obtaining holy spirit." ²⁰ Yet Peter said to him, "May your silver be for destruction together with you, seeing that you infer that the gratuity of God is to be acquired by means of money!" ²¹ For you there is neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart is not straight in front of God." ²² Repent, then, from this evil of yours, and beseech the Lord, if, consequently, the notion of your heart will be forgiven you." ²³ For I see you are in the bile of bitterness and the fetter of injustice."
