9Prior to that time, a man named Simon had practiced sorcery in the city and astounded the people of Samaria. He claimed to be someone great,
10and all the people, from the least to the greatest, heeded his words and said, “This man is the divine power called the Great Power.”
11They paid close attention to him because he had astounded them for a long time with his sorcery.
12But when they believed Philip as he preached the gospel of the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
