Peter said to him, “May your silver be destroyed along with you, because you thought you could buy God’s gift with money.
In context
18When Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money. 19“Give me this authority too,” he said, “so that anyone I lay my hands on may receive the Holy Spirit.” 20Peter said to him, “May your silver be destroyed along with you, because you thought you could buy God’s gift with money. 21You have no part or share in this matter, for your heart is not straight before God. 22So repent of this wickedness of yours and beg the Lord that, if it is possible, the intention of your heart may be forgiven you.
