Acts 5:3-5

Modern English Version

³ Then Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to deceive the Holy Spirit and keep back part of the proceeds of the land? ⁴ While it remained unsold, was it not your own? And when it was sold, was it not under your authority? Why have you conceived this deed in your heart? You did not lie to men, but to God.”

⁵ On hearing these words, Ananias fell down and died. And great fear came on all those who heard these things.
