Deeds (Act) of Apostles 8:17-20

¹⁷Then they laid hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.

¹⁸And when Simon had seen, that the Holy Ghost was given by laying on of the hands of the apostles, and he proffered or offered to them money,

¹⁹and said, Give ye also to me this power, that whomever I shall lay on mine hands or that on whomever I shall put on hands, that he receive the Holy Ghost.

²⁰But Peter said to him, Thy money be with thee into perdition, for thou guessedest that the gift of God should be had for money or for thou guessedest the gift of God to be had, or wielded, by money.
