⁷ About three hours later, his wife came in, but she did not know what had happened.

⁸ As Peter showed her the money that Ananias had brought, he asked her, “Tell me, is this the amount of money you two received for the land you sold?” She said, “Yes, that's what we(exc) received.”

⁹ So Peter said to her, “ You both did a terrible thing! You two agreed RHQ to try to determine if you could do that without the Spirit of the Lord God revealing to anyone that you two tried to deceive them! Listen! Do you(sg) hear the footsteps SYN of the men who buried your husband? They are right outside this door, and they will carry your corpse out to bury it, too!”

¹⁰ Immediately Sapphira fell down dead at Peter's feet. Then the young men came in. When they saw that she was dead, they carried her body out and buried it beside her husband's body.

¹¹ So all the believers in Jerusalem became greatly frightened PRS because of what God had done to Ananias and Sapphira. And all the others who heard people tell about those things also became greatly frightened.

¹² God was enabling the apostles to do many amazing miracles among the people. All the believers were meeting together regularly in the temple courtyard at the place called Solomon's Porch.

¹³ All of the other people who had not yet believed in Jesus were afraid to associate with the believers, because they knew that if they did anything evil, God would punish them, as well as revealing it to the believers. However, those people continued to greatly respect the believers.

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

⁸ Peter answered her, “Tell me whether you sold the land for so much.” She said, “Yes, for so much.”

⁹ But Peter asked her, “How is it that you have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out.”

⁸ And Peter said to her, Give me an answer: was this amount of money the price of the land? And she said, Yes, it was.

⁹ But Peter said to her, Why have you made an agreement together to be false to the Spirit of the Lord? See, the feet of the young men who have put the body of your husband in the earth, are at the door, and they will take you out.

¹⁰ And straight away she went down at his feet, and her life went from her: and the young men came in and saw her dead, and they took her out and put her in the earth with her husband.

¹¹ Then great fear came on all the church and on all who had knowledge of these things.

¹² Now a number of signs and wonders were done among the people by the hands of the Apostles; and they were all together in Solomon's covered way.

¹³ The others, in fear, kept back from joining them: but the people made much of them;

⁹ And Peter said unto her: Why have you agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? Behold the feet of them who have buried thy husband are at the door, and they shall carry thee out.

¹⁰ Immediately she fell down before his feet, and gave up the ghost. And the young men coming in, found her dead: and carried her out, and buried her by her husband.

⁸ Peter asked her, “Tell me, did you sell the land for this price?” “Yes, that was the price,” she replied.

⁹ Then Peter told her, “How could you agree together to swindle the Spirit of the Lord? Look, those who buried your husband are just returning, and they'll carry you out too!”

¹⁰ Immediately she fell down dead at his feet. The young men came back in and found her dead, so they carried her out and buried her beside her husband.

¹¹ Great fear spread through the whole church, as well as among everyone who heard what had happened.

¹² Many miraculous signs were performed among the people by the apostles. All the believers used to meet together in Solomon's porch.

¹³ Nobody else dared to join them even though they were greatly respected.
