Acts 5:1-6
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 5
1
But a man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property,
2
and kept back
some
of the proceeds for himself, with his wife’s full knowledge, and bringing a portion of it, he laid it at the apostles’ feet.
3
But Peter said, 'Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back
some
of the proceeds of the land?
4
While it remained
unsold,
did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not under your control? Why
is it
that you have conceived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to men, but to God.'
5
And as he heard these words, Ananias collapsed and died; and great fear came over all who heard
about it.
6
The young men got up and covered him up, and after carrying him out, they buried him.
King James Version
Chapter 5
1
But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,
2
And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet.
3
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?
4
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.
5
And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.
6
And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried him out, and buried him.

Chapter 5
1
But a man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property.
2
However, he kept back part of the proceeds with his wife’s knowledge, and brought a portion of it and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
3
"Ananias," Peter asked, "why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and keep back part of the proceeds of the land?
4
Wasn’t it yours while you possessed it? And after it was sold, wasn’t it at your disposal? Why is it that you planned this thing in your heart? You have not lied to people but to God."
5
When he heard these words, Ananias dropped dead, and a great fear came on all who heard.
6
The young men got up, wrapped his body, carried him out, and buried him.
New Living Translation
Chapter 5
1
But there was a certain man named Ananias who, with his wife, Sapphira, sold some property.
2
He brought part of the money to the apostles, claiming it was the full amount. With his wife’s consent, he kept the rest.
3
Then Peter said, 'Ananias, why have you let Satan fill your heart? You lied to the Holy Spirit, and you kept some of the money for yourself.
4
The property was yours to sell or not sell, as you wished. And after selling it, the money was also yours to give away. How could you do a thing like this? You weren’t lying to us but to God!'
5
As soon as Ananias heard these words, he fell to the floor and died. Everyone who heard about it was terrified.
6
Then some young men got up, wrapped him in a sheet, and took him out and buried him.

1
But a man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property,
2
and with his wife 's knowledge he kept back for himself some of the proceeds and brought only a part of it and laid it at the apostles ' feet.
3
But Peter said, "Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back for yourself part of the proceeds of the land?
4
While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not at your disposal? Why is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to man but to God."
5
When Ananias heard these words, he fell down and breathed his last. And great fear came upon all who heard of it.
6
The young men rose and wrapped him up and carried him out and buried him.
New International Version
Chapter 5
1
Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property.
2
With his wife’s full knowledge he kept back part of the money for himself, but brought the rest and put it at the apostles’ feet.
3
Then Peter said, "Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land?
4
Didn’t it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn’t the money at your disposal? What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied just to human beings but to God."
5
When Ananias heard this, he fell down and died. And great fear seized all who heard what had happened.
6
Then some young men came forward, wrapped up his body, and carried him out and buried him.
