NSB(i)
3 Peter said: »Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back part of the money from the land sale?
4 While it remained, was it not your own? And after it was sold, was it not in your power? Why did you conceive this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men, but to God.«
5 Hearing these words Ananias fell down and died. Great fear came over all those who heard these things.
6 The young men arose, covered him up, and carried him out, and buried him.
7 About three hours later, his wife, not knowing what was done, came in.
8 Peter said to her: »Tell me whether you sold the land for such a price?« And she said: »Yes, we did.«
9 Then Peter said: »How is it that you have agreed together to put Jehovah’s Spirit to the test? Look, those who buried your husband are at the door to carry you out.«
10 Then she fell down at his feet and died. The young men came in, and found her dead. They carried her out to be buried by her husband.
11 Great fear came upon the entire congregation who heard these things.
