Acts 5 📜 📕 ↷
3 And Peter said: Ananias, why hath Satan tempted thy heart, that thou shouldest lie to the Holy Ghost, and defraud of the price of the land?📜💬📚
4 Remaining, did it not remain to thee: and being sold, was it not in thy power? Why hast thou put this thing in thy heart? Thou hast not lied to men, but to God.📜💬📚
5 And Ananias hearing these words, fell down, and gave up the ghost. And there came great fear upon all that heard it.📜💬📚
6 And young men rising up, removed him, & bearing him forth buried him.📜💬📚
7 And it was the space as it were of three hours, and his wife, not knowing what was chanced, came in.📜💬📚
8 And Peter answered her: Tell me woman, whether did you sell the land for so much? But she said: Yea, for so much.📜💬📚
9 And Peter unto her: Why have you agreed together to tempt the Spirit of our Lord? Behold, their feet that have buried thy husband, at the door, and they shall bear thee forth.📜💬📚
10 Forthwith she fell before his feet, and gave up the ghost. And the young men going in, found her dead: and carried her forth, & buried her by her husband.📜💬📚
