Acts 5:4-16 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

4. While it remained, was it not your own? and after it was sold, was it not in your own power? why have you conceived this thing in your heart? you have not lied unto men, but unto God.

5. And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and died: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.

6. And the young men arose, wrapped him up, and carried him out, and buried him.

7. And it was about the space of three hours later, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in.

8. And Peter said unto her, Tell me whether you sold the land for so much? And she said, Yea, for so much.

9. Then Peter said unto her, How is it that you have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them who have buried your husband are at the door, and shall carry you out.

10. Then she fell down immediately at his feet, and died: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband.

11. And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.

12. And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders done among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch.

13. And of the rest dared no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them.

14. And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)

15. So that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and pallets, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.

16. There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and those who were tormented with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.
