¹³ He who keeps his sins secret will not do well; but one who is open about them, and gives them up, will get mercy.

⁴⁴ You are the children of your father the Evil One and it is your pleasure to do his desires. From the first he was a taker of life; and he did not go in the true way because there is no true thing in him.

⁹ And the voice of the Lord God came to the man, saying, Where are you?

¹⁰ And he said, Hearing your voice in the garden I was full of fear, because I was without clothing: and I kept myself from your eyes.

¹² When he makes search for blood, he has them in his memory: he is not without thought for the cry of the poor.

¹⁴ You have seen it; for your eyes are on sorrow and grief, to take it into your hand: the poor man puts his faith in you; you have been the helper of the child who has no father.

⁴ While you had it, was it not your property? and after you had given it in exchange, was it not still in your power? how has this purpose come into your mind? you have been false, not to men, but to God.

⁷ And about three hours after, his wife, having no knowledge of what had taken place, came in.

⁸ And Peter said to her, Give me an answer: was this amount of money the price of the land? And she said, Yes, it was.

⁹ But Peter said to her, Why have you made an agreement together to be false to the Spirit of the Lord? See, the feet of the young men who have put the body of your husband in the earth, are at the door, and they will take you out.
