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 4proceeds of the land?

4While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not 5under your control? Why is it that you have 6conceived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to men, but 7to God.”

5And as he heard these words, Ananias 8collapsed and 9died; and 10great fear came over all who heard about it.
