18. When Simon saw that through the laying on of the apostles’ hands the Holy Spirit was given, he offered them money,
19. saying, “Give me also this power, that whomever I lay hands on may receive the Holy Spirit.”
20. Peter said to him, “May your money perish with you, because you thought you could purchase the gift of God with money!
21. You have neither part nor share in this matter, for your heart is not right before God.
22. Therefore repent of your wickedness, and ask God if perhaps the intention of your heart may be forgiven you.
