Riverside(i)
1 BUT a man called Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a piece of property
2 and kept back a part of the price, with his wife's connivance, and brought a certain part and laid it at the apostles' feet.
3 Peter said, "Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and keep back part of the price of the land?
4 While you had it, was it not yours? And after it was sold, was it not at your own disposal? Why have you conceived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to men, but to God."
5 When Ananias heard these words he fell down and died. Great fear came upon all who heard these words.
6 Then the young men arose and wrapped him in a shroud and carried him out and buried him.
7 After an interval of about three hours, Ananias' wife came in, not knowing what had happened.
8 Peter asked her, "Tell me, did you sell the land for so much?" She answered, "Yes, for so much."
9 Peter said to her, "Why was it agreed between you to test the Spirit of the Lord? Even now the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out."
10 Immediately she fell down at his feet and died. The young men came in and found her dead, and carried her out and buried her beside her husband.
