Acts 5

1But a certainG5100 manG435, AnaniasG367 by nameG3686, with Sapphira his wifeG1135, soldG4453 a possession, 2and putG5087 aside for himself partG3313 of the priceG5092, [his] wifeG1135 alsoG2532 being privy to it; and having broughtG5342 a certainG5100 partG3313, laidG5087 it at the feetG4228 of the apostlesG652. 3But PeterG4074 saidG3004, AnaniasG367, whyG5101 has SatanG4567 filledG4137 thy heartG2588 that thou shouldest lieG5574 to the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, and put aside for thyself a part of the priceG5092 of the estate? 4While it remainedG3306 did it not remainG3306 to thee? and sold, was [it not] in thine own powerG1849? WhyG5101 is it that thou hast purposed this thingG3778 in thine heartG2588? Thou hast not liedG5574 to menG444, but to 1GodG2316. 5And AnaniasG367, hearingG191 these wordsG3056, fellG4098 downG4098 and expired. And greatG3173 fearG5401 cameG1096 upon all who heardG191 [it]. 6And the young men, risingG450 up, swathed him up for burial, and having carriedG1627 him out, buriedG2290 him. 7And it cameG1096 to passG1096 about threeG5140 hoursG5610 afterwards, that his wifeG1135, not knowing what had happenedG1096, cameG1096 in. 8And PeterG4074 answeredG611 her, TellG3004 me if ye gaveG591 the estate for so muchG5118? And she saidG3004, YesG3483, for so muchG5118. 9And PeterG4074 said to her, WhyG5101 [is it] that ye have agreedG4856 together to temptG3985 the SpiritG4151 of [the] LordG2962? Lo, the feetG4228 of those that have buriedG2290 thy husbandG435 [are] at the doorG2374, and they shall carryG1627 thee out. 10And she fellG4098 downG4098 immediatelyG3916 at his feetG4228 and expired. And when the youngG3495 menG435 cameG1525 in they foundG2147 her deadG3498; and, having carriedG1627 her out, they buriedG2290 her by her husbandG435. 11And greatG3173 fearG5401 cameG1096 upon all the assemblyG1577, and upon all who heardG191 these thingsG3778. 12And by the handsG5495 of the apostlesG652 wereG1510 manyG4183 signsG4592 and wondersG5059 done among the peopleG2992; (and they wereG1510 all with oneG3661 accordG3661 in Solomon's porch, 13but of the restG3062 durst no man joinG2853 them, but the peopleG2992 magnifiedG3170 them; 14and believers were moreG3123 than ever addedG4369 to the LordG2962, multitudesG4128 both of menG435 and womenG1135;) 15soG2443 that they brought out the sickG772 into the streets and putG5087 [them] on beds and couches, that at least the shadowG4639 of PeterG4074, when he cameG2064, might overshadowG1982 some oneG5100 of them. 16And the multitudeG4128 alsoG2532 of the citiesG4172 round about cameG4905 togetherG4905 to JerusalemG2419, bringingG5342 sickG772 persons and persons beset by uncleanG169 spiritsG4151, who were all healedG2323. 17And the highG749 priestG749 risingG450 up, and all they that wereG1510 with him, which isG1510 the sectG139 of the SadduceesG4523, wereG1510 filledG4130 with wrath, 18and laidG5087 handsG5495 on the apostlesG652 and putG5087 them in the public prison. 19But an angelG32 of [the] LordG2962 during the nightG3571 openedG455 the doorsG2374 of the prisonG5438, and leading them out, saidG3004, 20GoG4198 ye and standG2476 and speakG2980 in the temple to the peopleG2992 all the words of this lifeG2222. 21And when they heardG191 it, they enteredG1525 very early into the temple and taughtG1321. And when the highG749 priestG749 was comeG1525, and they that were with him, they calledG4779 togetherG4779 the councilG4892 and all the elderhood of the sonsG5207 of IsraelG2474, and sentG649 to the prisonG1201 to have them broughtG71. 22And when the officersG5257 were comeG3854, they did not findG2147 them in the prisonG5438; and returned and reportedG518 23sayingG3004, We foundG2147 the prisonG1201 shutG2808 with all securityG803, and the keepers standingG2476 at the doorsG2374; but when we had openedG455 [them], within we foundG2147 no oneG3762. 24And whenG5613 they heardG191 these wordsG3056, both the priestG749 and the captainG4755 of the temple and the chiefG749 priestsG749 were in perplexity as to them, what this would comeG1096 to. 25And some oneG5100 comingG3854 reportedG518 to them, Lo, the menG435 whom ye putG5087 in the prisonG5438 areG1510 in the temple, standingG2476 and teachingG1321 the peopleG2992. 26ThenG5119 the captainG4755, having goneG565 with the officersG5257, broughtG71 them, not with violenceG970, for they fearedG5399 the peopleG2992, lestG3361 they should be stonedG3034. 27And they bringG71 them and setG2476 them in the councilG4892. And the highG749 priestG749 askedG1905 them, 28sayingG3004, We strictly enjoined you not to teachG1321 in this nameG3686: and lo, ye have filledG4137 JerusalemG2419 with your doctrine, and purpose to bring upon us the bloodG129 of this manG444. 29But PeterG4074 answeringG611, and the apostlesG652, saidG3004, 2GodG2316 must be obeyed ratherG3123 than menG444. 30The 3GodG2316 of our fathersG3962 has raisedG1453 up JesusG2424, whom ye have slain, having hangedG2910 on a cross. 31Him has 4GodG2316 exaltedG5312 by his rightG1188 handG1188 as leader and saviour, to giveG1325 repentanceG3341 to IsraelG2474 and remission of sinsG266. 32And we areG1510 [his] witnessesG3144 of these thingsG3778, and the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 alsoG2532, which 5GodG2316 has givenG1325 to those that obey him. 33But they, when they heardG191 [these things], were cutG1282 to the heart, and took counsel to kill them. 34But a certainG5100 [manG444], a PhariseeG5330, namedG3686 GamalielG1059, a teacherG3547 of the lawG3547, held in honour of all the peopleG2992, roseG450 up in the councilG4892, and commandedG2753 to put the menG444 out for a short while, 35and saidG3004 to them, MenG444 of Israel, takeG4337 heed to yourselves as regards these menG444 what ye are going to do; 36for before these daysG2250 Theudas roseG450 up, alleging himself to beG1510 somebody, to whom a numberG706 of menG435, about fourG5071 hundredG5071, wereG1510 joined; who wasG1510 slain, and all, as manyG3745 as obeyed him, wereG1510 dispersed and cameG1096 to nothing. 37After him roseG450 JudasG2455 the GalileanG1057 in the daysG2250 of the census, and drew awayG868 [a number of] peopleG2992 after him; and he perishedG622, and all, as manyG3745 as obeyed him, were scatteredG1287 abroad. 38And nowG3568 I sayG3004 to you, Withdraw from these menG444 and let them aloneG863, for if this counselG1012 or this workG2041 have its origin from menG444, it will beG1510 destroyedG2647; 39but if it beG1510 from 6GodG2316, ye will not beG1510 ableG1410 to put them downG2647, lest ye beG1510 foundG2147 alsoG2532 fighters against 7GodG2316. 40And they listened to his advice; and having calledG4341 the apostlesG652, they beatG1194 them, and enjoined them not to speakG2980 in the nameG3686 of JesusG2424, and dismissedG630 them. 41They thereforeG3767 wentG4198 their way from [the] presenceG4383 of the councilG4892, rejoicingG5463 that they were counted worthyG2661 to be dishonoured for the nameG3686. 42And every dayG2250, in the temple and in the houses, they ceasedG3973 not teachingG1321 and announcing the glad tidings that JesusG2424 [was] the ChristG5547.
