44:004:034 Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold, 44:004:035 And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need. 44:004:036 And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation,) a Levite, and of the country of Cyprus, 44:004:037 Having land, sold it, and brought the money, and laid it at the apostles' feet. 44:005:001 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession, 44:005:002 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. 44:005:003 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? 44:005:004 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. 44:005:005 And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things. 44:005:006 And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried him out, and buried him. 44:005:007 And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in. 44:005:008 And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much? And she said, Yea, for so much. 44:005:009 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. 44:005:010 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. 44:005:011 And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things. 44:005:012 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. 44:005:013 And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them. 44:005:014 And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.) 44:005:015 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.
