- And Saul was there, giving approval to his death. On that day a great persecution broke out against the church at Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria.
- Godly men buried Stephen and mourned deeply for him.
- But Saul began to destroy the church. Going from house to house, he dragged off men and women and put them in prison.
- Those who had been scattered preached the word wherever they went.
- Philip went down to a city in Samaria and proclaimed the Christthere.
|
- And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles.
- And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great lamentation over him.
- As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every house, and haling men and women committed them to prison.
- Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.
- Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.
|
- When the crowds heard Philip and saw the miraculous signs he did, they all paid close attention to what he said.
- With shrieks, evil spirits came out of many, and many paralytics and cripples were healed.
- So there was great joy in that city.
- Now for some time a man named Simon had practiced sorcery in the city and amazed all the people of Samaria. He boasted that he was someone great,
- and all the people, both high and low, gave him their attention and exclaimed, "This man is the divine power known as the Great Power."
|
- And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.
- For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed.
- And there was great joy in that city.
- But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one:
- To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of God.
|
- They followed him because he had amazed them for a long time with his magic.
- But when they believed Philip as he preached the good news of the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
- Simon himself believed and was baptized. And he followed Philip everywhere, astonished by the great signs and miracles he saw.
- When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them.
- When they arrived, they prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit,
|
- And to him they had regard, because that of long time he had bewitched them with sorceries.
- But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
- Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was baptized, he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which were done.
- Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John:
- Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost:
|
- because the Holy Spirit had not yet come upon any of them; they had simply been baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.
- Then Peter and John placed their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
- When Simon saw that the Spirit was given at the laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money
- and said, "Give me also this ability so that everyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit."
- Peter answered: "May your money perish with you, because you thought you could buy the gift of God with money!
|
- (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)
- Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.
- And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,
- Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.
- But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.
|
- You have no part or share in this ministry, because your heart is not right before God.
- Repent of this wickedness and pray to the Lord. Perhaps he will forgive you for having such a thought in your heart.
- For I see that you are full of bitterness and captive to sin."
- Then Simon answered, "Pray to the Lord for me so that nothing you have said may happen to me."
- When they had testified and proclaimed the word of the Lord, Peter and John returned to Jerusalem, preaching the gospel in many Samaritan villages.
|
- Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.
- Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.
- For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity.
- Then answered Simon, and said, Pray ye to the LORD for me, that none of these things which ye have spoken come upon me.
- And they, when they had testified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans.
