1But <1161> a certain <5100> man <435> named <3686> Ananias <367>_, with <4862> Sapphira <4551> his <846> wife <1135>_, sold <4453> (5656) a possession <2933>_,
2And <2532> kept back <3557> (5668) [part] of <575> the price <5092>_, his <846> wife <1135> also <2532> being privy <4894> (5761) [to it], and <2532> brought <5342> (5660) a certain <5100> part <3313>_, and laid <5087> (5656) [it] at <3844> the apostles <652>_' feet <4228>_.
3But <1161> Peter <4074> said <2036> (5627)_, Ananias <367>_, why <1302> hath Satan <4567> filled <4137> (5656) thine <4675> heart <2588> <4571> to lie <5574> (5664) to the Holy <40> Ghost <4151>_, and <2532> to keep back <3557> (5670) [part] of <575> the price <5092> of the land <5564>_? {to lie to: or, to deceive}
4Whiles it remained <3306> (5723)_, was it not <3780> thine own <4671> <3306> (5707)_? and <2532> after it was sold <4097> (5685)_, was it not <5225> (5707) in <1722> thine own <4674> power <1849>_? why <5101> <3754> hast thou conceived <5087> (5639) this <5124> thing <4229> in <1722> thine <4675> heart <2588>_? thou hast <5574> (0) not <3756> lied <5574> (5662) unto men <444>_, but <235> unto God <2316>_.
5And <1161> Ananias <367> hearing <191> (5723) these <5128> words <3056> fell down <4098> (5631)_, and gave up the ghost <1634> (5656)_: and <2532> great <3173> fear <5401> came <1096> (5633) on <1909> all <3956> them that heard <191> (5723) these things <5023>_.
6And <1161> the young men <3501> arose <450> (5631)_, wound <4958> (0) him <846> up <4958> (5656)_, and <2532> carried [him] out <1627> (5660)_, and buried <2290> (5656) [him].
7And <1161> it was <1096> (5633) about <5613> the space <1292> (0) of three <5140> hours <5610> after <1292>_, when <2532> his <846> wife <1135>_, not <3361> knowing <1492> (5761) what was done <1096> (5756)_, came in <1525> (5627)_.
8And <1161> Peter <4074> answered <611> (5662) unto her <846>_, Tell <2036> (5628) me <3427> whether <1487> ye sold <591> (5639) the land <5564> for so much <5118>_? And <1161> she said <2036> (5627)_, Yea <3483>_, for so much <5118>_.
9Then <1161> Peter <4074> said <2036> (5627) unto <4314> her <846>_, How <5101> is it that <3754> ye <5213> have agreed together <4856> (5681) to tempt <3985> (5658) the Spirit <4151> of the Lord <2962>_? behold <2400> (5628)_, the feet <4228> of them which have buried <2290> (5660) thy <4675> husband <435> [are] at <1909> the door <2374>_, and <2532> shall carry <1627> (0) thee <4571> out <1627> (5692)_.
10Then <1161> fell she down <4098> (5627) straightway <3916> at <3844> his <846> feet <4228>_, and <2532> yielded up the ghost <1634> (5656)_: and <1161> the young men <3495> came in <1525> (5631)_, and found <2147> (5627) her <846> dead <3498>_, and <2532>_, carrying [her] forth <1627> (5660)_, buried <2290> (5656) [her] by <4314> her <846> husband <435>_.
11And <2532> great <3173> fear <5401> came <1096> (5633) upon <1909> all <3650> the church <1577>_, and <2532> upon <1909> as many as <3956> heard <191> (5723) these things <5023>_.
12And <1161> by <1223> the hands <5495> of the apostles <652> were <1096> (0) many <4183> signs <4592> and <2532> wonders <5059> wrought <1096> (5633) (5625) <1096> (5711) among <1722> the people <2992>_; (and <2532> they were <2258> (5713) all <537> with one accord <3661> in <1722> Solomon's <4672> porch <4745>_.
13And <1161> of the rest <3062> durst <5111> (5707) no man <3762> join himself <2853> (5745) to them <846>_: but <235> the people <2992> magnified <3170> (5707) them <846>_.
14And <1161> believers <4100> (5723) were <4369> (0) the more <3123> added <4369> (5712) to the Lord <2962>_, multitudes <4128> both <5037> of men <435> and <2532> women <1135>.)
15Insomuch <5620> that they brought forth <1627> (5721) the sick <772> into <2596> the streets <4113>_, and <2532> laid <5087> (5721) [them] on <1909> beds <2825> and <2532> couches <2895>_, that <2443> at the least <2579> the shadow <4639> of Peter <4074> passing by <2064> (5740) might overshadow <1982> (5661) some <5100> of them <846>_. {into...: or, in every street}
16<1161> There came <4905> (5711) also <2532> a multitude <4128> [out] of the cities <4172> round about <4038> unto <1519> Jerusalem <2419>_, bringing <5342> (5723) sick <772> folks, and <2532> them which were vexed <3791> (5746) with <5259> unclean <169> spirits <4151>_: and they <3748> were healed <2323> (5712) every one <537>_.
17Then <1161> the high priest <749> rose up <450> (5631)_, and <2532> all they <3956> that were with <4862> him <846>_, (which <3588> is <5607> (5752) the sect <139> of the Sadducees <4523>,) and were filled <4130> (5681) with indignation <2205>_, {indignation: or, envy}
18And <2532> laid <1911> (5627) their <846> hands <5495> on <1909> the apostles <652>_, and <2532> put <5087> (5639) them <846> in <1722> the common <1219> prison <5084>_.
19But <1161> the angel <32> of the Lord <2962> by <1223> night <3571> opened <455> (5656) the prison <5438> doors <2374>_, and <5037> brought <1806> (0) them <846> forth <1806> (5631)_, and said <2036> (5627)_,
20Go <4198> (5737)_, stand <2476> (5685) and <2532> speak <2980> (5720) in <1722> the temple <2411> to the people <2992> all <3956> the words <4487> of this <5026> life <2222>_.
21And <1161> when they heard <191> (5660) [that], they entered <1525> (5627) into <1519> the temple <2411> early in the morning <5259> <3722>_, and <2532> taught <1321> (5707)_. But <1161> the high priest <749> came <3854> (5637)_, and <2532> they that were with <4862> him <846>_, and called <4779> (0) the council <4892> together <4779> (5656)_, and <2532> all <3956> the senate <1087> of the children <5207> of Israel <2474>_, and <2532> sent <649> (5656) to <1519> the prison <1201> to have <71> (0) them <846> brought <71> (5683)_.
22But <1161> when the officers <5257> came <3854> (5637)_, and found <2147> (5627) them <846> not <3756> in <1722> the prison <5438>_, they returned <390> (5660)_, and <1161> told <518> (5656)_,
23Saying <3004> (5723)_, <3754> The prison <1201> truly <3303> found we <2147> (5627) shut <2808> (5772) with <1722> all <3956> safety <803>_, and <2532> the keepers <5441> standing <2476> (5761) without <1854> before <4253> the doors <2374>_: but <1161> when we had opened <455> (5660)_, we found <2147> (5627) no man <3762> within <2080>_.
24Now <1161> when <5613> <5037> the high priest <2409> and <2532> the captain <4755> of the temple <2411> and <2532> the chief priests <749> heard <191> (5656) these <5128> things <3056>_, they doubted <1280> (5707) of <4012> them <846> whereunto <5101> <302> this <5124> would grow <1096> (5636)_.
25Then came <3854> (5637) one <5100> and <1161> told <518> (5656) them <846>_, saying <3004> (5723)_, <3754> Behold <2400> (5628)_, the men <435> whom <3739> ye put <5087> (5639) in <1722> prison <5438> are <1526> (5748) standing <2476> (5761) in <1722> the temple <2411>_, and <2532> teaching <1321> (5723) the people <2992>_.
26Then <5119> went <565> (5631) the captain <4755> with <4862> the officers <5257>_, and brought <71> (5627) them <846> without <3756> <3326> violence <970>_: for <1063> they feared <5399> (5711) the people <2992>_, lest <3363> they should have been stoned <3034> (5686)_.
27And <1161> when they had brought <71> (5631) them <846>_, they set <2476> (5627) [them] before <1722> the council <4892>_: and <2532> the high priest <749> asked <1905> (5656) them <846>_,
28Saying <3004> (5723)_, Did <3853> (0) not <3756> we straitly <3852> command <3853> (5656) you <5213> that ye should <1321> (0) not <3361> teach <1321> (5721) in <1909> this <5129> name <3686>_? and <2532>_, behold <2400> (5628)_, ye have filled <4137> (5758) Jerusalem <2419> with your <5216> doctrine <1322>_, and <2532> intend <1014> (5736) to bring <1863> (5629) this <5127> man's <444> blood <129> upon <1909> us <2248>_.
29Then <1161> Peter <4074> and <2532> the [other] apostles <652> answered <611> (5679) and said <2036> (5627)_, We ought <1163> (5748) to obey <3980> (5721) God <2316> rather <3123> than <2228> men <444>_.
30The God <2316> of our <2257> fathers <3962> raised up <1453> (5656) Jesus <2424>_, whom <3739> ye <5210> slew <1315> (5668) and hanged <2910> (5660) on <1909> a tree <3586>_.
31Him <5126> hath God <2316> exalted <5312> (5656) with his <846> right hand <1188> [to be] a Prince <747> and <2532> a Saviour <4990>_, for to give <1325> (5629) repentance <3341> to Israel <2474>_, and <2532> forgiveness <859> of sins <266>_.
32And <2532> we <2249> are <2070> (5748) his <846> witnesses <3144> of these <5130> things <4487>_; and <2532> [so is] also <1161> the Holy <40> Ghost <4151>_, whom <3739> God <2316> hath given <1325> (5656) to them that obey <3980> (5723) him <846>_.
33When <1161> they heard <191> (5660) [that], they were cut <1282> (5712) [to the heart], and <2532> took counsel <1011> (5711) to slay <337> (5629) them <846>_.
34Then <1161> stood there up <450> (5631) one <5100> in <1722> the council <4892>_, a Pharisee <5330>_, named <3686> Gamaliel <1059>_, a doctor of the law <3547>_, had in reputation <5093> among all <3956> the people <2992>_, and commanded <2753> (5656) to put <4160> (5658) the apostles <652> forth <1854> a <5100> little space <1024>_;
35And <5037> said <2036> (5627) unto <4314> them <846>_, Ye men <435> of Israel <2475>_, take heed <4337> (5720) to yourselves <1438> what <5101> ye intend <3195> (5719) to do <4238> (5721) as touching <1909> these <5125> men <444>_.
36For <1063> before <4253> these <5130> days <2250> rose up <450> (5627) Theudas <2333>_, boasting <3004> (5723) himself <1438> to be <1511> (5750) somebody <5100>_; to whom <3739> a number <706> of men <435>_, about <5616> four hundred <5071>_, joined themselves <4347> (5681)_: who <3739> was slain <337> (5681)_; and <2532> all <3956>_, as many as <3745> obeyed <3982> (5712) him <846>_, were scattered <1262> (5681)_, and <2532> brought <1096> (5633) to <1519> nought <3762>_. {obeyed: or, believed}
37After <3326> this man <5126> rose up <450> (5627) Judas <2455> of Galilee <1057> in <1722> the days <2250> of the taxing <582>_, and <2532> drew away <868> (5656) much <2425> people <2992> after <3694> him <846>_: he also <2548> perished <622> (5639)_; and <2532> all <3956>_, [even] as many as <3745> obeyed <3982> (5712) him <846>_, were dispersed <1287> (5681)_. {obeyed: or, believed}
38And <2532> now <3569> I say <3004> (5719) unto you <5213>_, Refrain <868> (5628) from <575> these <5130> men <444>_, and <2532> let <1439> (0) them <846> alone <1439> (5657)_: for <3754> if <1437> this <3778> counsel <1012> or <2228> this <5124> work <2041> be <5600> (5753) of <1537> men <444>_, it will come to nought <2647> (5701)_:
39But <1161> if <1487> it be <2076> (5748) of <1537> God <2316>_, ye cannot <3756> <1410> (5736) overthrow <2647> (5658) it <846>_; lest haply <3379> ye be found <2147> (5686) even <2532> to fight against God <2314>_.
40And <1161> to him <846> they agreed <3982> (5681)_: and <2532> when they had called <4341> (5666) the apostles <652>_, and beaten <1194> (5660) [them], they commanded <3853> (5656) that they should <2980> (0) not <3361> speak <2980> (5721) in <1909> the name <3686> of Jesus <2424>_, and <2532> let <630> (0) them <846> go <630> (5656)_.
41And <3767> they departed <4198> (5711) <3303> from <575> the presence <4383> of the council <4892>_, rejoicing <5463> (5723) that <3754> they were counted worthy <2661> (5681) to suffer shame <818> (5683) for <5228> his <846> name <3686>_.
42And <5037> daily <2250> <3956> in <1722> the temple <2411>_, and <2532> in every <2596> house <3624>_, they ceased <3973> (5710) not <3756> to teach <1321> (5723) and <2532> preach <2097> (5734) Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>_.
