  1. Acts 8:5–25Rank 1 from verse 16
    Open

    5Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.

    6And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.

    7For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed.

    8And there was great joy in that city.

    9But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one:

    10To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of God.

    11And to him they had regard, because that of long time he had bewitched them with sorceries.

    12But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

    13Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was baptized, he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which were done.

    14Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John:

    15Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost:

    16(For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)

    17Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.

    18And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles’ hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,

    19Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.

    20But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.

    21Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.

    22Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.

    23For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity.

    24Then answered Simon, and said, Pray ye to the Lord for me, that none of these things which ye have spoken come upon me.

    25And they, when they had testified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans.

    32And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.

    33But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,

    34And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

    35And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.

  5. Luke 9:52–56Rank 5 from verse 16

    52And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.

    53And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem.

    54And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did?

    55But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.

    56For the Son of man is not come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.
