4 Therefore those who were scattered went everywhere preaching the word.
5 Philip went down to the city of Samaria and preached Christ to them.
6 When the crowds heard Philip and saw the miracles which he did, they listened in unity to what he said.
7 For unclean spirits, crying with a loud voice, came out of many who were possessed. And many who were paralyzed or lame were healed.
8 So there was much joy in that city.
9 Now a man named Simon was previously in the city practicing sorcery and astonishing the nation of Samaria, saying he was someone great,
10 to whom they all listened, from the least to the greatest, saying, “This man is the great power of God.”
