Acts 8:17-19

International Children’s Bible

¹⁷ Then, when the two apostles began laying their hands on^[a] the people, they received the Holy Spirit.

¹⁸ Simon saw that the Spirit was given to people when the apostles laid their hands on them. So he offered the apostles money. ¹⁹ He said, “Give me also this power so that when I lay my hands on a person, he will receive the Holy Spirit.”
