Acts 5

3 Ref And Peter said, `Ananias, wherefore did the Adversary fill thy heart, for thee to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back of the price of the place?

4 Ref while it remained, did it not remain thine? and having been sold, in thy authority was it not? why `is' it that thou didst put in thy heart this thing? thou didst not lie to men, but to God;'

5 Ref and Ananias hearing these words, having fallen down, did expire, and great fear came upon all who heard these things,

6 Ref and having risen, the younger men wound him up, and having carried forth, they buried `him'.

7 And it came to pass, about three hours after, that his wife, not knowing what hath happened, came in,

8 Ref and Peter answered her, `Tell me if for so much ye sold the place;' and she said, `Yes, for so much.'

9 Ref And Peter said unto her, `How was it agreed by you, to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? lo, the feet of those who did bury thy husband `are' at the door, and they shall carry thee forth;'

10 Ref and she fell down presently at his feet, and expired, and the young men having come in, found her dead, and having carried forth, they buried `her' by her husband;

11 Ref and great fear came upon all the assembly, and upon all who heard these things.
