1
Now a certain
man
named
Ananias, with his
wife
Sapphira,
sold
a property,
2
and
he kept back
from
the
proceeds,
also the
wife
being aware of
it
, and
having brought
a certain
portion,
he laid
it
at the
feet
of the apostles.
3
But
Peter
said, Ananias,
because of
why
has Satan
filled
your
heart
for
you
to lie to the
Holy
Spirit
and
to keep back
from the proceeds of the
land?
4
Remaining,
did not it remain
yours? And having been sold, was it
not
in
the own
authority?
Why
did you purpose
this
deed
in
your
heart?
You have not lied
to men, but to God!
5
And
hearing
these
words,
Ananias,
having f
all
en down,
breathed his last.
And
great
fear
came
upon
all
those
hearing
.
6
And the
younger
men
having arisen,
covered
him, and
having carried
him
out,
buried
him
.
7
Now
it came to pass
about
three
hours
afterward, his
wife
also came in, not knowing that
having come to pass.
8
And
Peter
replied
to her, Tell me
if
you sold
the
land
for so much? And she said, Yes, for so much.
9
But
Peter
said
to her, Why
is it
that you
have agreed together
to test
the
Spirit
of
the
Lord?
Behold,
the
feet
of those
having buried
your
husband
are
at
the
door, and they will carry you out.
10
And
immedi
at
ely
she fell down
at
his
feet
and
bre
at
hed her last.
And the
young
men
having come in,
found
her
dead;
and
having carried
her
out,
they buried
her
by her
husband.
11
And
great
fear
came
upon
the
whole
church
and
upon
all
those
hearing
these things.
12
Now
many
signs
and
wonders
were happening
among
the
people
by the
hands
of the
apostles.
And they were all
with one accord
in Solomons
Colonnade.
13
Now
none of the
rest
dared
to join
them,
but
the
people
were magnifying
them.
14
And
more
believing
in the
Lord
were added,
multitudes
both
of men
and women,
15
so as
even
to bring out
the
sick
into the streets, and
to put
them
on
cots and
mats,
that
of Peter
coming,
at least
the
shadow
might envelop
some
of them.
16
Now
the
multitude
from
the
cities
surrounding
Jerusalem
also
were coming toge
the
r,
bringing
the
sick
and
those
being tormented
by
unclean
spirits,
who
were all healed.
17
But the high priest,
having risen up,
and
all
those
with
him (being
the
sect
of the
Sadducees)
were filled
with
jealousy,
18
and
they laid
hands
on the
apostles
and
put
them in
the
public
jail.
19
But
during
the night
an angel
of
the
Lord,
having opened
the
doors
of the jail, having brought them out, also said,
20
Go, and
having stood
in
the
temple,
speak
to
the
people
all
the
words
of
this
life.
21
And
having heard,
they entered
into the temple
at
the
dawn
and
were teaching.
Now
the
high priest
having come,
and
those
with
him,
called together
the
Council,
even the
whole
Sen
at
e
of the
sons
of Israel,
and
sent
to the prison house
to bring
them.
22
But the officers,
having come,
did not find
them in the
prison.
And
having returned,
they reported back,
23
saying
, We found the
prison house
shut,
with
all
security,
and the
guards
standing
before the
doors;
but
having opened
them
,
we found
no one inside.
24
Now
when
both the
captain
of the temple and the
chief priests
heard
these
words,
they were perplexed
concerning
them,
what
this
might be.
25
And
a certain one
having come,
reported
to them, Behold, the
men
whom
you put
in the
prison
are
standing
in the temple and
teaching
the people!
26
Then
the
captain,
having gone
with
the
officers,
was bringing
the
m,
not
with
force,
for
the
y were afraid of
the
people
lest
the
y might be stoned.
27
And
hav
in
g brought
them,
they set
them
in
the
Council.
And the
high priest
asked
them,
28
saying, By a charge
we commanded
you not
to teach
in
this
name,
and behold,
you have filled
Jerusalem
with your
teaching,
and
you intend
to bring
upon us the
blood
of
this
man.
29
But
Peter
and the
apostles
answering
said, It is necessary
to obey
God
rather
than
men.
30
The
God
of our
fathers
raised up
Jesus,
whom
you killed,
having hanged
Him
on
a tree.
31
God
exalted
Him to His
right hand
as
Prince
and Savior,
to give
repentance
to Israel, and
forgiveness
of sins.
32
And we are
witnesses
of
these
things, and also the
Holy
Spirit,
whom
God
has given
to those obeying Him.
33
And
having heard,
they were cut
to the heart
and
were desiring
to put them to death
.
34
But a certa
in
man
hav
in
g risen up
in
the
Council,
a Pharisee
named
Gamaliel,
a teacher of the law
honored
by all
the
people,
commanded
them
to put
the
men
outside
for a short while.
35
And
he said to them, Men
of Israel,
take heed to yourselves
what
you are about
to do
with
these
men.
36
For
before
these
days,
Theudas
rose up,
affirming
himself to be somebodyto whom
a number
of men,
about
four hundred, were joinedwho was put to death, and all,
as many as
were persuaded
by him,
were dispersed;
and
it came
to
nothing.
37
After
this man,
Judas
the
Galilean
rose up
in
the
days
of
the
registration
and drew away
people
after
him.
And he
perished,
and
all,
as many as
were persuaded by him,
were scattered.
38
And
now
I say
to you,
withdraw
from
these
men
and
let them alone
, f
or
if
this
plan
or
this
w
or
k
is from
men
,
it will be overthrown.
39
But
if
it is from God,
you will not be able
to overthrow
it, lest
ever
also
you would be found
fighting against God.
40
And
they were persuaded
by him.
And
having called in
the apostles, having beaten
them
,
they commanded
them
not
to speak
in the
name
of Jesus, and
they released
them
.
41
Therefore
indeed they
departed
from
the
presence
of the
Council,
rejoicing
that
they had been counted worthy
to suffer dishonor
for the
Name.
42
And
every
day,
in
the temple and
in
every
house, they did not cease teaching and proclaiming the good news that
Jesus
is
the
Christ.
