Acts 5
1 - But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira, his wife, sold a possession,
2 - and kept back part of the price, his wife also being aware of it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet.
4 - While you kept it, didn't it remain your own? After it was sold, wasn't it in your power? How is it that you have conceived this thing in your heart? You haven't lied to men, but to God."
5 - Ananias, hearing these words, fell down and died. Great fear came on all who heard these things.
6 - The young men arose and wrapped him up, and they carried him out and buried him.
7 - About three hours later, his wife, not knowing what had happened, came in.
10 - She fell down immediately at his feet, and died. The young men came in and found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her by her husband.
11 - Great fear came on the whole assembly, and on all who heard these things.
12 - By the hands of the apostles many signs and wonders were done among the people. They were all with one accord in Solomon's porch.
13 - None of the rest dared to join them, however the people honored them.
14 - More believers were added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women.
