6
The multitudes listened with one accord to the things that were spoken by Philip, when they heard and saw the signs which he did.
7
For unclean spirits came out of many of those who had them. They came out, crying with a loud voice. Many who had been paralyzed and lame were healed.
8
There was great joy in that city.
9
But there was a certain man, Simon by name, who had used sorcery in the city before, and amazed the people of Samaria, making himself out to be some great one,
10
to whom they all listened, from the least to the greatest, saying, "This man is that great power of God."
11
They listened to him, because for a long time he had amazed them with his sorceries.
12
But when they believed Philip preaching good news concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
13
Simon himself also believed. Being baptized, he continued with Philip. Seeing signs and great miracles done, he was amazed.
14
Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them,
15
who, when they had come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit;
16
for as yet he had fallen on none of them. They had only been baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.
