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.”
11 They listened to him, because for a long time he had astonished them by his sorceries.
12 But when they believed Philip preaching about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, both men and women were baptized.
13 Even Simon himself believed. And when he was baptized, he continued with Philip and was amazed as he watched the miracles and signs which were done.
