Acts 8:18-23

¹⁸Now when Simon saw that through the laying on of the apostles’ hands the Holy Spirit was given, he offered them money,

¹⁹saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay my hands, he may receive the Holy Spirit.

²⁰But Peter said unto him, Thy silver perish with thee, because thou hast thought to obtain the gift of God with money.

²¹Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right before God.

²²Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray the Lord, if perhaps the thought of thy heart shall be forgiven thee.

²³For I see that thou art in the gall of bitterness and in the bond of iniquity.
