Chapter 8:15-17
(NIV) "When they (Peter and John) arrived, they prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit, because the Holy Spirit had not yet come upon any of them, they had simply been baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus. Then Peter and John placed their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit."
(KJV) "Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost: For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost."
Epipipto is the Greek word used for "fallen" in the King James version. Epipipto means to embrace (with affection) or seize (with more or less violence; literal or figurative): fall into (on, upon), lie on, press upon.
