A man now certain, Ananias named, with Sapphira, the wife of him, sold a property,

and he kept back from the proceeds, already being aware also the wife and having brought a portion certain, at the feet of the apostles he laid [it].

Said however Peter, Ananias, because of why has filled Satan the heart of you to lie to [for] you the Spirit Holy and to keep back from the proceeds of the land?

Not remaining to you was it remaining? And having been sold, in the own authority it was? Why that did you purpose in the heart of you deed this? Not you have lied to men, but to God!

Hearing now Ananias words these, having fallen down, he breathed his last. And came fear great upon all those hearing.

Having arisen then, the younger [men] covered him, and having carried [him] out, they buried [him].

It came to pass now about hours three afterward, also the wife of him, not already knowing that having come to pass, came in.

Replied then to her Peter, do tell me if for so much, the land you sold? And she said, Yes, for so much.

She fell down then immediately at the feet of him and breathed her last. Having come in then, the young [men] found her dead; and having carried out, they buried [her] by the husband of her.

And came fear great upon all the church and upon all those hearing these things.

By now the hands of the apostles were happening signs and wonders many among the people. And they were with one accord, all in the Colonnade of Solomon;

of the now rest, no one was daring to join with them, but were magnifying them the people;

more now were added believing in the Lord, multitudes of men both, and women,

so as even into the streets to bring out the sick, and to put [them] on cots and mats, that when is coming Peter, at least the shadow shall envelop some of them.

Were coming together now also the multitude from the surrounding cities Jerusalem, bringing [the] sick and [those] being tormented by spirits unclean, who were healed all.

Having risen up however the high priest and all those with him, which is being [the] sect of the Sadducees, were filled with jealousy,

and they laid the hands on the apostles and put them in [the] jail public.

An angel however of [the] Lord, during night having opened the doors of the prison, having brought out then them, said,

do go, and having stood, do speak in the temple to the people all the declarations of the life this.

Having heard now, they entered at the dawn into the temple and were teaching. Having come now the high priest and those with him, they called together the Council, even all the Senate of the sons of Israel, and sent to the prison house to bring them.

saying that, The prison house we found shut, with all security, and the guards already standing before the doors; having opened [them] however, inside no one we found.
