14 Now when the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the word of God, they sent them Peter and John,
15 who went down and prayed for them, that they might receive the holy Spirit,
16 for it had not yet fallen upon any of them; they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
17 Then they laid hands on them and they received the holy Spirit.
18 When Simon saw that the Spirit was conferred by the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money
19 and said, “Give me this power too, so that anyone upon whom I lay my hands may receive the holy Spirit.”
20 But Peter said to him, “May your money perish with you, because you thought that you could buy the gift of God with money.
