In his lowly condition his justice was taken away. And who will describe his generation, because his life was taken from the earth? And having answered, the eunuch said to Philip, I ask thee, about whom does the prophet say this, about himself, or about some other man?

Now when Simon saw that the Holy Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he brought money to them, saying, Give me also this power, so that on whomever I lay hands, he may receive Holy Spirit.

There is no part nor lot for thee in this matter, for thy heart is not straight in the sight of God. Repent therefore from this thine evil, and beg God, if perhaps the thought of thy heart will be forgiven thee. For I perceive that thou are in the gall of bitterness and the bond of unrighteousness. And having answered, Simon said, Beg ye to the Lord for me, so that none of which things ye have spoken may come upon me.
