VIII By occasion of the persecution in Jerusalem the church being planted in Samar a 6 by Philip the deacon who preached did miracles and baptized many among the rest Simon the sorcerer a great seducer of the people 14 Peter and John come to confirm and enlarge the church where by prayer and imposition of hands giving the holy Ghost 18 when Simon would have bought the like power of them 20 Peter sharply reproving his hypocrisie and covetousness and exhorting him to repentance together with John preaching the word of the Lord return to Jerusalem 26 But the angel sendeth Philip to teach and baptize the Ethiopian eunuch ANd Saul was consenting unto his death And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria except the apostles 2 And devout men carried Stephen to his burial and made great lamentation over him 3 As for Saul he made havock of the church entring into every house and haling men and women committed them to prison 4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria and preached Christ unto them 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake hearing and seeing the miracles which he did 7 For unclean spirits crying with loud voice came out of many that were possessed with them and many taken with palsies and that were lame were healed 8 And there was great joy in that city 9 But there was a certain man called Simon which before-time in the same city used sorcery and bewitched the people of Samaria giving out that himself was some great one 10 To whom they all gave heed from the least to the greatest saying This man is the great power of God 11 And to him they had regard because that of long time he had bewitched them with sorceries 12 But when they beleeved Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ they were baptized both men and women 13 Then Simon himself beleeved also and when he was baptized he continued with Philip and wondred beholding the miracles and signs which were done 14 Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God they sent unto them Peter John 15 Who when they were come down prayed for them that they might receive the holy Ghost 16 For as yet he was faâ—n upon none of them onely they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus 17 Then laid they their hands on them and they received the holy Ghost 18 And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles hands the holy Ghost was given he offered them money 19 Saying Give me also this power that on whomsoever I lay hands he may receive the holy Ghost 20 But Peter said unto him Thy money perish with thee because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money 21 Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter for thy heart is not right in the sight of God 22 Repent therefore of this thy wickedness and pray God if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee 23 For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness and in the bond of imquity 24 Then answered Simon and said Pray ye to the Lord for me that none of these things which ye have spoken come upon me 25 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 26 And the 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 27 And he arose and went and behold a man of Ethiopia an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians who had the charge of all her treasure and had come to Jerusalem for to worship 28 Was returning and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet 29 Then the Spirit said unto Philip Go near and joyn thy self to this chariot 30 And Philip ran thither to him and heard him read the prophet Esaias and said Understandest thou what thou readest 31 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 32 The place of the scripture which he read was this * Isa 53.7 He was led as a sheep to the slaughter and like a lamb dumb before his shearer so opened he not his mouth 33 In his humiliation his judgement was taken away and who shall declare his generation for his life is taken from the earth 34 And the eunuch answered Philip and said I pray thee of whom speaketh the prophet this of himself or of some other man 35 Then Philip opened his mouth and began at the same scripture and preached unto him Jesus 36 And as they went on their way they came unto a certain water and the eunuch said See here is water what doth hinder me to be baptized 37 And Philip said If thou beleevest with all thine heart thou mayest And he answered and said I beleeve that Jesus Christ is the Son of God 38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still and they went down both into the water both Philip and the eunuch and he baptized
