  • AC-5:1 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife,

  • sold a



  • possession,



  • AC-5:2 And kept back [part] of the price, his wife also being

  • privy [to it],



  • and brought a certain part, and laid [it], at the apostles' feet.



  • AC-5:3 But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine

  • heart to lie to



  • the Holy Ghost, and to keep back [part] of the price of the land?



  • AC-5:4 Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it

  • was sold, was it



  • not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in

  • thine heart? thou



  • hast not lied unto men, but unto God.



  • AC-5:5 And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up

  • the ghost: and



  • great fear came on all them that heard these things.



  • AC-5:6 And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried [him]

  • out, and



  • buried [him].



  • AC-5:7 And it was about the space of three hours after, when

  • his wife, not



  • knowing what was done, came in.



  • AC-5:8 And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the

  • land for so



  • much? And she said, Yea, for so much.



  • AC-5:9 Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed

  • together to



  • tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which

  • have buried thy



  • husband [are] at the door, and shall carry thee out.



  • AC-5:10 Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded

  • up the ghost:



  • and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying

  • [her] forth,



  • buried [her] by her husband.



  • AC-5:11 And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as

  • many as heard



  • these things.



  • AC-5:12 And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and

  • wonders wrought



  • among the people; (and they were all with one accord in

  • Solomon's porch.



  • AC-5:13 And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but

  • the people



  • magnified them.



  • AC-5:14 And believers were the more added to the Lord,

  • multitudes both of men



  • and women.)



  • AC-5:15 Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the

  • streets, and laid



  • [them] on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of

  • Peter passing by



  • might overshadow some of them.



  • AC-5:16 There came also a multitude [out] of the cities round

  • about unto



  • Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with

  • unclean spirits:



  • and they were healed every one.



  • AC-5:17 Then the high priest rose up, and all they that were

  • with him, (which



  • is the sect of the Sadducees,) and were filled with indignation,



  • AC-5:18 And laid their hands on the apostles, and put them in

  • the common



  • prison.



  • AC-5:19 But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison

  • doors, and



  • brought them forth, and said,



  • AC-5:20 Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the

  • words of this



  • life.



  • AC-5:21 And when they heard [that], they entered into the

  • temple early in the



  • morning, and taught. But the high priest came, and they that

  • were with him, and



  • called the council together, and all the senate of the children

  • of Israel, and



  • sent to the prison to have them brought.



  • AC-5:22 But when the officers came, and found them not in the

  • prison, they



  • returned, and told,



  • AC-5:23 Saying, The prison truly found we shut with all safety,

  • and the



  • keepers standing without before the doors: but when we had

  • opened, we found no



  • man within.



  • AC-5:24 Now when the high priest and the captain of the temple

  • and the chief



  • priests heard these things, they doubted of them whereunto this

  • would grow.



  • AC-5:25 Then came one and told them, saying, Behold, the men

  • whom ye put in



  • prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people.



  • AC-5:26 Then went the captain with the officers, and brought

  • them without



  • violence: for they feared the people, lest they should have been

  • stoned.



  • AC-5:27 And when they had brought them, they set [them] before

  • the council:



  • and the high priest asked them,



  • AC-5:28 Saying, Did not we straitly command you that ye should

  • not teach in



  • this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your

  • doctrine, and intend



  • to bring this man's blood upon us.



  • AC-5:29 Then Peter and the [other] apostles answered and said,

  • We ought to



  • obey God rather than men.



  • AC-5:30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew

  • and hanged on a



  • tree.



  • AC-5:31 Him hath God exalted with his right hand [to be] a

  • Prince and a



  • Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of

  • sins.



  • AC-5:32 And we are his witnesses of these things; and [so is]

  • also the Holy



  • Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.



  • AC-5:33 When they heard [that], they were cut [to the heart],

  • and took counsel



  • to slay them.



  • AC-5:34 Then stood there up one in the council, a Pharisee,

  • named Gamaliel, a



  • doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and

  • commanded to put



  • the apostles forth a little space;



  • AC-5:35 And said unto them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to

  • yourselves what ye



  • intend to do as touching these men.



  • AC-5:36 For before these days rose up Theudas, boasting himself

  • to be



  • somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined

  • themselves: who



  • was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and

  • brought to



  • nought.



  • AC-5:37 After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of

  • the taxing, and



  • drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all,

  • [even] as many as



  • obeyed him, were dispersed.



  • AC-5:38 And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let

  • them alone:



  • for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to

  • nought:



  • AC-5:39 But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply

  • ye be found



  • even to fight against God.



  • AC-5:40 And to him they agreed: and when they had called the

  • apostles, and



  • beaten [them], they commanded that they should not speak in the

  • name of Jesus,



  • and let them go.



  • AC-5:41 And they departed from the presence of the council,

  • rejoicing that



  • they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.



  • AC-5:42 And daily in the temple, and in every house, they

  • ceased not to teach



  • and preach Jesus Christ.
