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 :
And
a certain man, by
name
Simon, was
before
in the city using
magic
, and amazing
the nation
of Samaria, saying
himself to
be
a
certain
great one ,
To whom they all gave
heed, from the
least
to
the
greatest
, saying, This man
is the great power of God .

all giving
heed, from small

had
bewitched
them with sorceries
.

of God ,
and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized ,
both men and women .

when they believed Philip ,
proclaiming
good

he
was
baptized, he continued
with Philip, and
wondered,
beholding the
miracles
and
signs which
were
done.

Simon also himself
did
believe,
and ,
having
been
baptized, he was
continuing
with Philip, beholding also
signs and
mighty
acts
being
done ,
he
was
amazed
.
Now
when
the apostles which
were
at
Jerusalem heard that Samaria had
received the word of God, they
sent
unto them Peter and John :
And
the apostles in
Jerusalem having
heard that Samaria hath
received the word of God, did
send
unto them Peter and John ,
Who ,
when
they
were
come down ,
prayed
for
them, that they might
receive the Holy Ghost:
who having
come down did
pray
concerning
them, that they may
receive the Holy Spirit,
--
(
For as yet he was fallen upon none of them :
only they were
baptized in
the name of the Lord Jesus .)
for as yet he was fallen upon none of them ,
and
only they have
been
baptized --
to
the name of the Lord Jesus ;
Then laid
they their
hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost
.
then were
they laying
hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit
.
And when
Simon saw
that through laying on of the apostles'
hands the Holy Ghost
was
given, he
offered
them money,
And Simon ,
having
beheld
that through the
laying on of the hands of
the apostles,
the
Holy Spirit
is
given, brought
before
them money,
Saying, Give me
also this power
, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost
.
saying, `
Give also to
me
this authority
, that on whomsoever I may
lay the
hands, he may receive the Holy Spirit
. '
But
Peter said unto him, Thy money
perish
with thee ,
because thou
hast
thought
that
the gift of God may
be
purchased
with
money .
And
Peter said unto him, `
Thy silver
with thee --
may
it
be
to
destruction!
because the gift of God thou
didst
think
to
possess
through
money ;
Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter:
for thy heart is not right in
the
sight
of
God .
thou hast neither part nor lot in this thing,
for thy heart is not right before
God ;
Repent
therefore of
this thy wickedness, and pray
God, if perhaps
the thought
of thine
heart may be forgiven thee .
reform,
therefore ,
from
this thy wickedness, and beseech
God, if then
the purpose
of thy
heart may be forgiven thee ,
For I
perceive
that
thou
art
in the gall of bitterness, and in
the
bond of iniquity
.
for in the gall of bitterness, and bond of unrighteousness,
I
perceive
thee
being
. '
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
Simon answering
, said, `Beseech
ye for me unto
the
Lord
, that nothing
may
come
upon
me
of the
things ye have spoken. '
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.
They indeed
, therefore,
having
testified fully,
and spoken
the word of the Lord, did
turn
back
to Jerusalem ;
in many villages also
of the Samaritans they
did
proclaim
good
news
.

angel
of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto
the way that goeth
down from Jerusalem unto
Gaza, which
is desert.

the
charge
of
all her treasure, and
had come to Jerusalem
for
to
worship ,

arisen,
he went on
, and

his chariot read
Esaias
the prophet.

was
reading
the prophet Isaiah

Philip, `
Go near, and be
joined
to this chariot ;'
And Philip ran
thither
to
him
, and
heard him read
the prophet Esaias
, and said, Understandest
thou what thou readest
?

run
near
, heard him reading
the prophet Isaiah
, and said, `Dost
thou then
know
what thou dost
read
? '
And he said, How can
I, except
some man
should
guide me? And
he desired
Philip that
he
would
come up and
sit with him.
and he said, `Why,
how am
I able
, if
some one
may
not
guide me? '
he called
Philip also,
having
come up ,
to
sit with him.
The place
of the scripture
which
he read
was this,
He
was led
as a sheep to
the
slaughter ;
and like
a lamb dumb
before his shearer, so opened
he not his mouth :
And
the contents
of the Writing
that
he was reading
was this:
`
As a sheep unto
slaughter he
was
led,
and as
a lamb before his shearer dumb
, so he doth
not open
his mouth ;
In his humiliation his judgment was taken away :
and who shall declare his
generation
? for
his
life
is
taken from the earth.
in his humiliation his judgment was taken away ,
and his
generation
--
who shall declare? because
taken from the earth is
his
life
. '
And the eunuch answered
Philip ,
and
said, I pray thee, of
whom speaketh
the prophet this? of
himself, or of
some other man
?
And the eunuch answering
Philip said, `
I pray thee, about
whom doth
the prophet say
this? about
himself, or about
some other one
? '
Then
Philip opened his mouth, and began
at
the
same
scripture
, and
preached
unto
him Jesus.
and
Philip having
opened his mouth, and having
begun
from
this
Writing
, proclaimed
good

on their
way, they came unto
a certain water :

, here
is
water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?

going
on the
way, they came upon

with
all thine
heart, thou
mayest.
And he answered
and
said, I believe that
Jesus Christ is
the Son of God .
`
And Philip said, `
If thou dost
believe
out
of
all the
heart, it
is
lawful;'
and he answering
said, `
I believe Jesus Christ to
be
the Son of God ;''

into
the water, both Philip and the eunuch ;

in
all the cities, till he
came
to Caesarea
.
