Acts 5:5-10

5And hearing these words, Ananias fell down suddenly and died; and great fear and awe gripped those who heard of it.

6And the young men [in the congregation] got up and wrapped up the body, and carried it out and buried it.

7Now after an interval of about three hours his wife came in, not knowing what had happened.

8Peter asked her, “Tell me whether you sold your land for so much?” And she said, “Yes, for so much.”

9Then Peter said to her, “How could you two have agreed together to put the Spirit of the Lord to the test? Look! The feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.”

10And at once she fell down at his feet and died; and the young men came in and found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her beside her husband.
