Acts 5
English Standard Version
Ananias and Sapphira
5 But a man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property, 2 and with his wife's knowledge (A)he kept back for himself some of the proceeds and brought only a part of it and (B)laid it at the apostles' feet. 3 But Peter said, “Ananias, why has (C)Satan filled your heart to lie (D)to the Holy Spirit and (E)to keep back for yourself part of the proceeds of the land? 4 While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not at your disposal? Why is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to man but (F)to God.” 5 When Ananias heard these words, he (G)fell down and breathed his last. And (H)great fear came upon all who heard of it. 6 The young men rose and (I)wrapped him up and carried him out and buried him.
7 After an interval of about three hours his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. 8 And Peter said to her, “Tell me whether you[a] sold the land for so much.” And she said, “Yes, for so much.” 9 But Peter said to her, “How is it that you have agreed together (J)to test (K)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.” 10 Immediately she fell down at his feet and breathed her last. When the young men came in they found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her beside her husband. 11 And (L)great fear came upon the whole church and upon all who heard of these things.
Many Signs and Wonders Done
12 Now many signs and wonders were regularly done among the people (M)by the hands of the apostles. And they were all (N)together in (O)Solomon's Portico. 13 None of the rest dared join them, but (P)the people held them in high esteem. 14 And (Q)more than ever believers were added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women, 15 (R)so that they even (S)carried out the sick into the streets and laid them on cots and mats, that as Peter came by (T)at least his shadow might fall on some of them. 16 The people also gathered from the towns around Jerusalem, (U)bringing the sick and those afflicted with unclean spirits, and they were all healed.
The Apostles Arrested and Freed
17 But the high priest rose up, and all who were with him (that is, the party of (V)the Sadducees), and filled with (W)jealousy 18 they arrested the apostles and (X)put them in the public prison. 19 But during the night (Y)an angel of the Lord (Z)opened the prison doors and brought them out, and said, 20 “Go and stand in the temple and speak to the people all (AA)the words of (AB)this (AC)Life.” 21 And when they heard this, (AD)they entered the temple (AE)at daybreak and began to teach.
Now when the high priest came, and those who were with him, they called together the council, all the senate of the people of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought. 22 But when the officers came, they did not find them in the prison, so they returned and reported, 23 “We found the prison securely locked and the guards standing at the doors, but when we opened them we found no one inside.” 24 Now when (AF)the captain of the temple and the chief priests heard these words, they were greatly perplexed about them, wondering what this would come to. 25 And someone came and told them, “Look! The men whom you put in prison (AG)are standing in the temple and teaching the people.” 26 Then (AH)the captain with the officers went and brought them, but not by force, for (AI)they were afraid of being stoned by the people.
27 And when they had brought them, they set them before the council. And the high priest questioned them, 28 saying, (AJ)“We strictly charged you not to teach in this name, yet here you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and you (AK)intend to bring this man's blood upon us.” 29 But Peter and the apostles answered, (AL)“We must obey God rather than men. 30 (AM)The God of our fathers (AN)raised Jesus, (AO)whom you killed by hanging him on (AP)a tree. 31 God exalted (AQ)him at his right hand as (AR)Leader and (AS)Savior, (AT)to give (AU)repentance to Israel and (AV)forgiveness of sins. 32 And (AW)we are witnesses to these things, and (AX)so is the Holy Spirit, (AY)whom God has given to those who obey him.”
33 When they heard this, they (AZ)were enraged and wanted to kill them. 34 But a Pharisee in the council named (BA)Gamaliel, (BB)a teacher of the law held in honor by all the people, stood up and gave orders to put the men outside for a little while. 35 And he said to them, “Men of Israel, take care what you are about to do with these men. 36 For (BC)before these days Theudas rose up, (BD)claiming to be somebody, and a number of men, about four hundred, joined him. He was killed, and all who followed him were dispersed and came to nothing. 37 After him Judas the Galilean rose up in the days of (BE)the census and drew away some of the people after him. He too perished, and all who followed him were scattered. 38 So in the present case I tell you, keep away from these men and let them alone, for (BF)if this plan or this undertaking is of man, it will fail; 39 but (BG)if it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow them. You (BH)might even be found opposing God!” So they took his advice, 40 and (BI)when they had called in the apostles, (BJ)they beat them and charged them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go. 41 Then they left the presence of the council, (BK)rejoicing that they were counted worthy (BL)to suffer dishonor for (BM)the name. 42 And every day, (BN)in the temple and from house to house, they did not cease teaching and (BO)preaching (BP)that the Christ is Jesus.

And kai they were eimi all hapas together homothumadon in en · ho Solomon’ s Solomōn Portico stoa. 13 But de of the ho others loipos no oudeis one dared tolmaō to join kollaō them autos; however alla, the ho people laos held megalynō them autos in high regard, 14 and de more mallon than ever believers pisteuō were added prostithēmi to the ho Lord kyrios, multitudes plēthos both te of men anēr and kai women gynē, 15 so hōste that they carried out ekpherō the ho sick asthenēs even kai into eis the ho streets platys, and kai laid tithēmi them on epi cots klinarion and kai mats krabattos, so hina that as Peter Petros came erchomai by at kan least his ho shadow skia might fall episkiazō on some tis of them autos. 16 · de A ho great plēthos number of people from the ho towns polis around perix Jerusalem Ierousalēm also kai came synerchomai, bringing pherō the sick asthenēs and kai those tormented ochleō by hypo evil akathartos spirits pneuma, and they hostis were healed therapeuō, all hapas of them.
17 Then de the ho high priest archiereus stood up anistēmi and kai all pas who ho were with syn him autos ( that ho is eimi, the party hairesis of the ho Sadducees Saddoukaios), and they were filled pimplēmi with indignation zēlos, 18 and kai they laid epiballō · ho hands cheir on epi the ho apostles apostolos and kai put tithēmi them autos in en the public dēmosios jail tērēsis. 19 But de an angel angelos of the Lord kyrios during dia the night nyx opened anoigō the ho doors thura of the ho prison phylakē and te brought exagō them autos out and said legō, 20 “ Go poreuō and kai stand histēmi in en the ho temple hieron and speak laleō to the ho people laos all pas the ho words rhēma of ho this houtos life zōē.” 21 And de when they heard akouō this, they entered eiserchomai the ho temple hieron at hypo · ho daybreak orthros and kai began to teach didaskō.

27 And de they brought agō them autos and had them stand histēmi before en the ho council synedrion. · kai The ho high priest archiereus questioned eperōtaō them autos, 28 saying legō, “ We gave parangellō you hymeis a strict order parangelia to stop mē teaching didaskō in epi · ho this houtos name onoma.
