Fate of Ananias and Sapphira

1 But a man° named° Ananias°, with his wife° Sapphira°, sold° a piece° of property°, 2 and akept° back° [some] of the price° for himself, with his wife’s° Ifull° knowledge°, and bringing° a portion° of it, he blaid° it at the apostles’° feet°. 3 But Peter° said°, “Ananias°, why°° has aSatan° filled° your heart° to lie° bto the Holy° Spirit° and to ckeep° back° [some] of the price° of the land°? 4 While it remained° [unsold], did it not remain° your own? And after it was sold°, was it not Iunder° your control°? Why° is it that you have IIconceived° this° deed° in your heart°? You have not lied° to men° but ato God°.” 5 And as he heard° these° words°, Ananias° afell° down° and breathed° his last°; and bgreat° fear° came° over° all° who heard° of it. 6 The young° men° got° up and acovered° him up, and after carrying° him out, they buried° him.
