And after it was sold, was it not in your own power? Why have you conceived this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men, but to God. 5 And Ananias hearing these words fell down and breathed his last, and great fear came on all who heard these things. 6 And the young men arose, wrapped him up, and carried him out, and buried him. 7 And it was about the space of three hours later, when his wife, not knowing what had happened, came in. 8 And Peter answered her, Tell me whether you sold the land for so much? And she said, Yes, for so much. 9 Then Peter said to her, How is it that you have agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Look, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out. 10 Then she fell down immediately at his feet and breathed her last, and the young men came in and found her dead, and carrying her out, buried her by her husband.
