3 But Peter said: 'Ananias, why has Satan tempted your heart, so that you would lie to the Holy Spirit and be deceitful about the price of the land?
4 Did it not belong to you while you retained it? And having sold it, was it not in your power? Why have you set this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men, but to God!'
5 Then Ananias, upon hearing these words, fell down and expired. And a great fear overwhelmed all who heard of it.
6 And the young men rose up and removed him; and carrying him out, they buried him.
7 Then about the space of three hours passed, and his wife entered, not knowing what had happened.
