Old Testament

New Testament

Acts 5:5-9 New International Version (NIV)

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.

7. About three hours later his wife came in, not knowing what had happened.

8. Peter asked her, “Tell me, is this the price you and Ananias got for the land?” “Yes,” she said, “that is the price.”

9. Peter said to her, “How could you conspire to test the Spirit of the Lord? Listen! The feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.”
