Acts 8:4-17

4TheyG3767 thereforeG3767 thatG3767 were scatteredG1289 abroad wentG1330 aboutG1330 preachingG2097 theG3588 wordG3056.

5AndG1161 PhilipG5376 wentG2718 downG2718 toG1519 theG3588 cityG4172 ofG4172 SamariaG4540, andG1161 proclaimedG2784 unto themG846 theG3588 ChristG5547.

6AndG2532 theG3588 multitudesG3793 gaveG4160 heedG991 withG1722 oneG3739 accordG3661 unto theG3588 thingsG3739 thatG3739 were spokenG3004 byG1722 PhilipG5376, whenG2532 theyG846 heardG191, andG2532 sawG991 theG3588 signsG4592 whichG3739 heG2532 didG4160.

7ForG1063 fromG5456 manyG4183 ofG4151 thoseG3588 whichG3588 had uncleanG169 spiritsG4151, theyG2532 cameG1831 outG1831, cryingG994 withG2532 a loudG3173 voiceG5456: andG2532 manyG4183 thatG1161 were palsied, andG2532 thatG1161 were lameG5560, were healedG2323.

8AndG1161 thereG1722 was muchG4183 joyG5479 inG1722 thatG1565 cityG4172.

9ButG1161 thereG1510 wasG1510 aG1510 certainG5100 manG435, SimonG4613 byG1722 nameG3686, whichG3588 beforetime inG1722 theG3588 cityG4172 used sorcery, andG2532 amazedG1839 theG3588 peopleG1484 ofG435 SamariaG4540, giving outG1438 thatG3004 himselfG1438 wasG1510 someG5100 greatG3173 oneG5100:

10toG3004 whomG3739 theyG3739 allG3956 gave heed, fromG575 theG3956 leastG3398 toG3004 theG3956 greatestG3173, sayingG3004, ThisG3778 manG3778 isG1510 thatG3739 powerG1411 ofG575 GodG2316 whichG3739 isG1510 calledG2564 GreatG3173.

11AndG1161 theyG846 gave heed toG846 himG846, becauseG1223 thatG846 ofG1223 longG5550 timeG5550 heG846 had amazedG1839 themG846 withG1223 hisG846 sorceries.

12ButG1161 whenG3753 theyG2532 believedG4100 PhilipG5376 preachingG2097 goodG2097 tidings concerningG4012 theG3588 kingdomG932 ofG932 GodG2316 andG2532 theG3588 nameG3686 ofG932 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, theyG2532 were baptizedG907, bothG5037 menG435 andG2532 womenG1135.

13AndG2532 SimonG4613 alsoG2532 himselfG846 believedG4100: andG2532 beingG1510 baptizedG907, heG2532 continuedG4342 withG2532 PhilipG5376; andG2532 beholding signsG4592 andG2532 greatG3173 miraclesG1411 wrought, heG2532 wasG1510 amazedG1839.

14NowG1161 whenG2532 theG3588 apostlesG652 whichG3748 were at JerusalemG2414 heardG191 thatG3754 SamariaG4540 had receivedG1209 theG3588 wordG3056 ofG3056 GodG2316, theyG846 sentG649 unto themG846 PeterG4074 andG2532 JohnG2491:

15whoG3748, whenG4336 theyG846 were comeG2597 downG2597, prayedG4336 forG4012 themG846, thatG3704 theyG846 might receiveG2983 theG2983 HolyG40 Ghost:

16forG1063 asG1519 yetG1161 heG846 wasG1510 fallenG1968 uponG1909 noneG3762 ofG2962 themG846: onlyG3440 theyG846 had beenG1510 baptizedG907 intoG1519 theG3588 nameG3686 ofG2962 theG3588 LordG2962 JesusG2424.

17ThenG2532 laidG2007 theyG846 theirG846 handsG5495 onG1909 themG846, andG2532 theyG846 receivedG2983 theG3588 HolyG40 Ghost.
