Acts 5:4

---

← Acts 5:3	Acts 5:4 (KJV)	Acts 5:5 →
But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back [part] of the price of the land?	Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.	And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.
