Acts 8:18-22

18When Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money,

19saying, “Give me this power also so that anyone I lay hands on may receive the Holy Spirit.”

20But Peter told him, “May your silver be destroyed with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money!

21You have no part or share in this matter, because your heart is not right before God.

22Therefore repent of this wickedness of yours, and pray to the Lord that, if possible, your heart’s intent may be forgiven.
