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.
16. For He had not yet come upon them; they had only been immersed in the name of the Lord Yeshua.
17. Then they began laying their hands on them, and they were receiving the Ruach ha-Kodesh.
18. Now when Simon saw that the Ruach ha-Kodesh was given through the laying on of hands by the emissaries, he offered them money,
19. saying, “Give this power to me, too—so that anyone on whom I lay hands may receive the Ruach ha-Kodesh.”
20. Peter said to him, “May your silver go to ruin, and you with it—because you thought you could buy God’s gift with money!
21. You have no part or share in this matter, because your heart is not right before God.
22. Therefore repent of this wickedness of yours, and pray to the Lord that, if possible, the intent of your heart may be pardoned.
