Acts 8:18-23

Haweis(i) 18 Now when Simon saw, that by the imposition of the apostles' hands, the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money, 19 saying, Confer on me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay my hands, they may receive the Holy Ghost. 20 But Peter said unto him, May thy silver with thyself go into perdition, because thou hast imagined that the gift of God can be purchased with money. 21 There is for thee neither part nor lot in this word: for thy heart is not right before God. 22 Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray to God, if haply this thought of thy heart may be forgiven thee. 23 For I see that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and the bond of iniquity.
