9 Now a man named Simon had been practicing magic in the city and astonishing the people of Samaria, saying he was someone great.
10 They all were paying special attention to him, saying, “This man is the power of God that is called ‘Great.’”
11 And they kept paying attention to him, because for a long time he had astonished them with his magical arts.
12 But when they believed Philip proclaiming the Good News about the kingdom of God and the name of Messiah Yeshua, both men and women were immersed.
13 Even Simon himself believed; and after being immersed, he continued with Philip. And when he saw signs and great miracles happening, he was continually amazed.
14 Now when the emissaries in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the message of God, they sent Peter and John to them.
15 They came down and prayed for them to receive the Ruach ha-Kodesh.
