Acts 8:19 in Context — Acts 8
17 Alors Pierre et Jean leur imposèrent les mains, et ils reçurent le Saint-Esprit.
18 Lorsque Simon vit que le Saint-Esprit était donné par l’imposition des mains des apôtres, il leur offrit de l’argent,
19 en disant: Accordez-moi aussi ce pouvoir, afin que celui à qui j’imposerai les mains reçoive le Saint-Esprit.
20 Mais Pierre lui dit: Que ton argent périsse avec toi, puisque tu as cru que le don de Dieu s’acquérait à prix d’argent!
21 Il n’y a pour toi ni part ni lot dans cette affaire, car ton cœur n’est pas droit devant Dieu.
