¹¹ I long to see you^(A) so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift^(B) to make you strong—

⁶ When Paul placed his hands on them,^(A) the Holy Spirit came on them,^(B) and they spoke in tongues^[a](C) and prophesied.

¹⁵ When they arrived, they prayed for the new believers there that they might receive the Holy Spirit,^{(A) 16} because the Holy Spirit had not yet come on any of them;^(B) they had simply been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.^{(C) 17} Then Peter and John placed their hands on them,^(D) and they received the Holy Spirit.^(E)

¹⁸ When Simon saw that the Spirit was given at the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money ¹⁹ and said, “Give me also this ability so that everyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit.”

²⁵ Now to him who is able^(A) to establish you in accordance with my gospel,^(B) the message I proclaim about Jesus Christ, in keeping with the revelation of the mystery^(C) hidden for long ages past,

²⁹ I know that when I come to you,^(A) I will come in the full measure of the blessing of Christ.
