5:1 But 1161 a certain 5100 man 435 named 3686 Ananias 367, with 4862 Sapphira 4551 his 846 wife 1135, sold 4453 5656 a possession 2933,

5:2 And 2532 kept back 3557 5668 [part] of 575 the price 5092, his 846 wife 1135 also 2532 being privy 4894 5761 [to it], and 2532 brought 5342 5660 a certain 5100 part 3313, and laid 5087 5656 [it] at 3844 the apostles' 652 feet 4228.

5:3 But 1161 Peter 4074 said 2036 5627, Ananias 367, why 1302 hath Satan 4567 filled 4137 5656 thine 4675 heart 2588 4571 to lie 5574 5664 to the Holy 40 Ghost 4151, and 2532 to keep back 3557 5670 [part] of 575 the price 5092 of the land 5564?(to lie to: or, to deceive)

5:4 Whiles it remained 3306 5723, was it not 3780 thine own 4671 3306 5707? and 2532 after it was sold 4097 5685, was it not 5225 5707 in 1722 thine own 4674 power 1849? why 5101 3754 hast thou conceived 5087 5639 this 5124 thing 4229 in 1722 thine 4675 heart 2588? thou hast 5574 0 not 3756 lied 5574 5662 unto men 444, but 235 unto God 2316.

5:5 And 1161 Ananias 367 hearing 191 5723 these 5128 words 3056 fell down 4098 5631, and gave up the ghost 1634 5656: and 2532 great 3173 fear 5401 came 1096 5633 on 1909 all 3956 them that heard 191 5723 these things 5023.

5:6 And 1161 the young men 3501 arose 450 5631, wound 4958 0 him 846 up 4958 5656, and 2532 carried [him] out 1627 5660, and buried 2290 5656 [him].

5:7 And 1161 it was 1096 5633 about 5613 the space 1292 0 of three 5140 hours 5610 after 1292, when 2532 his 846 wife 1135, not 3361 knowing 1492 5761 what was done 1096 5756, came in 1525 5627.

5:8 And 1161 Peter 4074 answered 611 5662 unto her 846, Tell 2036 5628 me 3427 whether 1487 ye sold 591 5639 the land 5564 for so much 5118? And 1161 she said 2036 5627, Yea 3483, for so much 5118.

5:9 Then 1161 Peter 4074 said 2036 5627 unto 4314 her 846, How 5101 is it that 3754 ye 5213 have agreed together 4856 5681 to tempt 3985 5658 the Spirit 4151 of the Lord 2962? behold 2400 5628, the feet 4228 of them which have buried 2290 5660 thy 4675 husband 435 [are] at 1909 the door 2374, and 2532 shall carry 1627 0 thee 4571 out 1627 5692.

5:10 Then 1161 fell she down 4098 5627 straightway 3916 at 3844 his 846 feet 4228, and 2532 yielded up the ghost 1634 5656: and 1161 the young men 3495 came in 1525 5631, and found 2147 5627 her 846 dead 3498, and 2532, carrying [her] forth 1627 5660, buried 2290 5656 [her] by 4314 her 846 husband 435.

5:11 And 2532 great 3173 fear 5401 came 1096 5633 upon 1909 all 3650 the church 1577, and 2532 upon 1909 as many as 3956 heard 191 5723 these things 5023.

5:12 And 1161 by 1223 the hands 5495 of the apostles 652 were 1096 0 many 4183 signs 4592 and 2532 wonders 5059 wrought 1096 5633 5625 1096 5711 among 1722 the people 2992; (and 2532 they were 2258 5713 all 537 with one accord 3661 in 1722 Solomon's 4672 porch 4745.

5:13 And 1161 of the rest 3062 durst 5111 5707 no man 3762 join himself 2853 5745 to them 846: but 235 the people 2992 magnified 3170 5707 them 846.

5:14 And 1161 believers 4100 5723 were 4369 0 the more 3123 added 4369 5712 to the Lord 2962, multitudes 4128 both 5037 of men 435 and 2532 women 1135.)

5:15 Insomuch 5620 that they brought forth 1627 5721 the sick 772 into 2596 the streets 4113, and 2532 laid 5087 5721 [them] on 1909 beds 2825 and 2532 couches 2895, that 2443 at the least 2579 the shadow 4639 of Peter 4074 passing by 2064 5740 might overshadow 1982 5661 some 5100 of them 846.(into…: or, in every street)

5:16 1161 There came 4905 5711 also 2532 a multitude 4128 [out] of the cities 4172 round about 4038 unto 1519 Jerusalem 2419, bringing 5342 5723 sick 772 folks, and 2532 them which were vexed 3791 5746 with 5259 unclean 169 spirits 4151: and they 3748 were healed 2323 5712 every one 537.

5:17 Then 1161 the high priest 749 rose up 450 5631, and 2532 all they 3956 that were with 4862 him 846, (which 3588 is 5607 5752 the sect 139 of the Sadducees 4523,) and were filled 4130 5681 with indignation 2205,(indignation: or, envy)

5:18 And 2532 laid 1911 5627 their 846 hands 5495 on 1909 the apostles 652, and 2532 put 5087 5639 them 846 in 1722 the common 1219 prison 5084.

5:19 But 1161 the angel 32 of the Lord 2962 by 1223 night 3571 opened 455 5656 the prison 5438 doors 2374, and 5037 brought 1806 0 them 846 forth 1806 5631, and said 2036 5627,

5:20 Go 4198 5737, stand 2476 5685 and 2532 speak 2980 5720 in 1722 the temple 2411 to the people 2992 all 3956 the words 4487 of this 5026 life 2222.

5:21 And 1161 when they heard 191 5660 [that], they entered 1525 5627 into 1519 the temple 2411 early in the morning 5259 3722, and 2532 taught 1321 5707. But 1161 the high priest 749 came 3854 5637, and 2532 they that were with 4862 him 846, and called 4779 0 the council 4892 together 4779 5656, and 2532 all 3956 the senate 1087 of the children 5207 of Israel 2474, and 2532 sent 649 5656 to 1519 the prison 1201 to have 71 0 them 846 brought 71 5683.

5:22 But 1161 when the officers 5257 came 3854 5637, and found 2147 5627 them 846 not 3756 in 1722 the prison 5438, they returned 390 5660, and 1161 told 518 5656,

5:23 Saying 3004 5723, 3754 The prison 1201 truly 3303 found we 2147 5627 shut 2808 5772 with 1722 all 3956 safety 803, and 2532 the keepers 5441 standing 2476 5761 without 1854 before 4253 the doors 2374: but 1161 when we had opened 455 5660, we found 2147 5627 no man 3762 within 2080.

5:24 Now 1161 when 5613 5037 the high priest 2409 and 2532 the captain 4755 of the temple 2411 and 2532 the chief priests 749 heard 191 5656 these 5128 things 3056, they doubted 1280 5707 of 4012 them 846 whereunto 5101 302 this 5124 would grow 1096 5636.

5:25 Then came 3854 5637 one 5100 and 1161 told 518 5656 them 846, saying 3004 5723, 3754 Behold 2400 5628, the men 435 whom 3739 ye put 5087 5639 in 1722 prison 5438 are 1526 5748 standing 2476 5761 in 1722 the temple 2411, and 2532 teaching 1321 5723 the people 2992.

5:26 Then 5119 went 565 5631 the captain 4755 with 4862 the officers 5257, and brought 71 5627 them 846 without 3756 3326 violence 970: for 1063 they feared 5399 5711 the people 2992, lest 3363 they should have been stoned 3034 5686.

5:27 And 1161 when they had brought 71 5631 them 846, they set 2476 5627 [them] before 1722 the council 4892: and 2532 the high priest 749 asked 1905 5656 them 846,

5:28 Saying 3004 5723, Did 3853 0 not 3756 we straitly 3852 command 3853 5656 you 5213 that ye should 1321 0 not 3361 teach 1321 5721 in 1909 this 5129 name 3686? and 2532, behold 2400 5628, ye have filled 4137 5758 Jerusalem 2419 with your 5216 doctrine 1322, and 2532 intend 1014 5736 to bring 1863 5629 this 5127 man's 444 blood 129 upon 1909 us 2248.

5:29 Then 1161 Peter 4074 and 2532 the [other] apostles 652 answered 611 5679 and said 2036 5627, We ought 1163 5748 to obey 3980 5721 God 2316 rather 3123 than 2228 men 444.

5:30 The God 2316 of our 2257 fathers 3962 raised up 1453 5656 Jesus 2424, whom 3739 ye 5210 slew 1315 5668 and hanged 2910 5660 on 1909 a tree 3586.

5:31 Him 5126 hath God 2316 exalted 5312 5656 with his 846 right hand 1188 [to be] a Prince 747 and 2532 a Saviour 4990, for to give 1325 5629 repentance 3341 to Israel 2474, and 2532 forgiveness 859 of sins 266.

5:32 And 2532 we 2249 are 2070 5748 his 846 witnesses 3144 of these 5130 things 4487; and 2532 [so is] also 1161 the Holy 40 Ghost 4151, whom 3739 God 2316 hath given 1325 5656 to them that obey 3980 5723 him 846.

5:33 When 1161 they heard 191 5660 [that], they were cut 1282 5712 [to the heart], and 2532 took counsel 1011 5711 to slay 337 5629 them 846.

5:34 Then 1161 stood there up 450 5631 one 5100 in 1722 the council 4892, a Pharisee 5330, named 3686 Gamaliel 1059, a doctor of the law 3547, had in reputation 5093 among all 3956 the people 2992, and commanded 2753 5656 to put 4160 5658 the apostles 652 forth 1854 a 5100 little space 1024;

5:35 And 5037 said 2036 5627 unto 4314 them 846, Ye men 435 of Israel 2475, take heed 4337 5720 to yourselves 1438 what 5101 ye intend 3195 5719 to do 4238 5721 as touching 1909 these 5125 men 444.

5:36 For 1063 before 4253 these 5130 days 2250 rose up 450 5627 Theudas 2333, boasting 3004 5723 himself 1438 to be 1511 5750 somebody 5100; to whom 3739 a number 706 of men 435, about 5616 four hundred 5071, joined themselves 4347 5681: who 3739 was slain 337 5681; and 2532 all 3956, as many as 3745 obeyed 3982 5712 him 846, were scattered 1262 5681, and 2532 brought 1096 5633 to 1519 nought 3762.(obeyed: or, believed)

5:37 After 3326 this man 5126 rose up 450 5627 Judas 2455 of Galilee 1057 in 1722 the days 2250 of the taxing 582, and 2532 drew away 868 5656 much 2425 people 2992 after 3694 him 846: he also 2548 perished 622 5639; and 2532 all 3956, [even] as many as 3745 obeyed 3982 5712 him 846, were dispersed 1287 5681.(obeyed: or, believed)

5:38 And 2532 now 3569 I say 3004 5719 unto you 5213, Refrain 868 5628 from 575 these 5130 men 444, and 2532 let 1439 0 them 846 alone 1439 5657: for 3754 if 1437 this 3778 counsel 1012 or 2228 this 5124 work 2041 be 5600 5753 of 1537 men 444, it will come to nought 2647 5701:

5:39 But 1161 if 1487 it be 2076 5748 of 1537 God 2316, ye cannot 3756 1410 5736 overthrow 2647 5658 it 846; lest haply 3379 ye be found 2147 5686 even 2532 to fight against God 2314.

5:40 And 1161 to him 846 they agreed 3982 5681: and 2532 when they had called 4341 5666 the apostles 652, and beaten 1194 5660 [them], they commanded 3853 5656 that they should 2980 0 not 3361 speak 2980 5721 in 1909 the name 3686 of Jesus 2424, and 2532 let 630 0 them 846 go 630 5656.

5:41 And 3767 they departed 4198 5711 3303 from 575 the presence 4383 of the council 4892, rejoicing 5463 5723 that 3754 they were counted worthy 2661 5681 to suffer shame 818 5683 for 5228 his 846 name 3686.

5:42 And 5037 daily 2250 3956 in 1722 the temple 2411, and 2532 in every 2596 house 3624, they ceased 3973 5710 not 3756 to teach 1321 5723 and 2532 preach 2097 5734 Jesus 2424 Christ 5547.
