Acts 5:4-12 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

4. “While it remained, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not in your authority? Why have you conceived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to men but to Elohim.”

5. Then Ḥananyah, hearing these words, fell down and breathed his last. And great fear came upon all those who heard of this.

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

7. And it came to be, about three hours later, that his wife came in, not knowing what had taken place.

8. And Kĕpha responded to her, “Say to me whether you sold the land for so much?” And she said, “Yes, for so much.”

9. So Kĕpha said to her, “Why have you agreed to try the Spirit of יהוה? Look, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they shall carry you out.”

10. And immediately she fell down at his feet and breathed her last. And the young men came in and found her dead, and carrying her out, they buried her beside her husband.

11. And great fear came upon all the assembly and upon all who heard of this.

12. And through the hands of the emissaries many signs and wonders were done among the people. And they were all with one mind in Shelomoh’s Porch.
