New American Standard Bible 1995

Acts 5:3-5

3But Peter said, “Ananias, why has 1Satan filled your heart to lie 2to the Holy Spirit and to 3keep back some of the price of the land?

4While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not 4under your control? Why is it that you have 5conceived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to men but 6to God.”

5And as he heard these words, Ananias 7fell down and breathed his last; and 8great fear came over all who heard of it.
