1 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, got money for his property,
1 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,
2 And kept back part of the price, his wife having knowledge of it, and took the rest and put it at the feet of the Apostles.
2 and kept back part of the price, his wife also being aware of it, then brought a certain part and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
3 But Peter said, Ananias, why has the Evil One put it into your heart to be false to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back part of the price of the land?
3 But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back part of the price of the land?
4 While you had it, was it not your property? and after you had given it in exchange, was it not still in your power? how has this purpose come into your mind? you have been false, not to men, but to God.
4 While you kept it, didn’t it remain your own? After it was sold, wasn’t it in your power? How is it that you have conceived this thing in your heart? You haven’t lied to men, but to God.”
5 And at these words, Ananias went down on the earth, and his life went from him: and great fear came on all who were present.
5 Ananias, hearing these words, fell down and died. Great fear came on all who heard these things.
6 And the young men went and made ready his body, and took it out, and put it in the earth.
6 The young men arose and wrapped him up, and they carried him out and buried him.
7 And about three hours after, his wife, having no knowledge of what had taken place, came in.
7 About three hours later, his wife, not knowing what had happened, came in.
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.
8 Peter answered her, “Tell me whether you sold the land for so much.” She said, “Yes, for so much.”
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.
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.”
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.
10 She fell down immediately at his feet and died. The young men came in and found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her by her husband.
11 Then great fear came on all the church and on all who had knowledge of these things.
11 Great fear came on the whole assembly, and on all who heard 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.
12 By the hands of the apostles many signs and wonders were done among the people. They were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch.
13 The others, in fear, kept back from joining them: but the people made much of them;
13 None of the rest dared to join them; however, the people honored them.
14 And a great number of men and women had faith, and were joined to the Lord;
14 More believers were added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women.
15 And they even took into the streets people who were ill, and put them on beds, so that when Peter went by, some of them might be in his shade.
15 They even carried out the sick into the streets and laid them on cots and mattresses, so that as Peter came by, at least his shadow might overshadow some of them.
16 And numbers of people came together from the towns round about Jerusalem, with those who were ill and those who were troubled with unclean spirits: and they were all made well.
16 The multitude also came together from the cities around Jerusalem, bringing sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits; and they were all healed.
17 But the high priest and those who were with him (the Sadducees) were full of envy,
17 But the high priest rose up, and all those who were with him (which is the sect of the Sadducees), and they were filled with jealousy
18 And they took the Apostles and put them in the common prison.
18 and laid hands on the apostles, then put them in public custody.
19 But in the night an angel of the Lord, opening the doors of the prison, took them out and said,
19 But an angel of the Lord opened the prison doors by night, and brought them out and said,
20 Go, take your place in the Temple and give the people all the teaching about this Life.
20 “Go stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.”
21 And hearing this, they went into the Temple at dawn, and were teaching. But the high priest and those who were with him got together the Sanhedrin and the representatives of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to get them.
21 When they heard this, they entered into the temple about daybreak and taught. But the high priest and those who were with him came and called the council together, with all the senate of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.
22 But the men who were sent saw that they were not in the prison, and came back with the news,
22 But the officers who came didn’t find them in the prison. They returned and reported,
23 Saying, The doors of the prison were safely shut, and the keepers were at the doors, but when they were open, there was nobody inside.
23 “We found the prison shut and locked, and the guards standing before the doors, but when we opened them, we found no one inside!”
24 Now, at these words, the captain of the Temple and the chief priests were greatly troubled about what might be the end of this business.
24 Now when the high priest, the captain of the temple, and the chief priests heard these words, they were very perplexed about them and what might become of this.
25 And someone came and said to them, The men, whom you put in prison, are in the Temple teaching the people.
25 One came and told them, “Behold, the men whom you put in prison are in the temple, standing and teaching the people.”
26 Then the captain and some of the police went and took them, but not violently, for fear that they might be stoned by the people.
26 Then the captain went with the officers, and brought them without violence, for they were afraid that the people might stone them.
27 And they took them into the Sanhedrin, and the high priest said to them,
27 When they had brought them, they set them before the council. The high priest questioned them,
28 We gave you very clear orders not to give teaching in this name: and now Jerusalem is full of your teaching, and you are attempting to make us responsible for this man's death.
28 saying, “Didn’t we strictly command you not to teach in this name? Behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and intend to bring this man’s blood on us.”
29 But Peter and the Apostles, answering, said, We have to do the orders of God, not of man.
29 But Peter and the apostles answered, “We must obey God rather than men.
30 The God of our fathers gave Jesus back to life, whom you had put to death, hanging him on a tree.
30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you killed, hanging him on a tree.
31 Him God has put on high at his right hand, as a Ruler and a Saviour, to give to Israel a change of heart and forgiveness of sins.
31 God exalted him with his right hand to be a Prince and a Savior, to give repentance to Israel, and remission of sins.
32 And we are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who keep his laws.
32 We are his witnesses of these things; and so also is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him.”
33 But when these words came to their ears, they were cut to the heart, and had a mind to put them to death.
33 But they, when they heard this, were cut to the heart, and were determined to kill them.
34 But one of the Sanhedrin, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a man of learning in the law, of whom all the people had a high opinion, got up and made a suggestion for the men to be put outside for a little time.
34 But one stood up in the council, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law, honored by all the people, and commanded to put the apostles out for a little while.
35 And he said to them, Men of Israel, take care what you do about these men.
35 He said to them, “You men of Israel, be careful concerning these men, what you are about to do.
36 For before this there was Theudas, who said he was someone important, to whom about four hundred men gave their support: he was put to death, and his band was broken up and came to nothing.
36 For before these days Theudas rose up, making himself out to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves. He was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were dispersed and came to nothing.
37 After this man, there was Judas of Galilee, at the time of the numbering, and some of the people went after him: he was put to death, and all his supporters were put to flight.
37 After this man, Judas of Galilee rose up in the days of the enrollment, and drew away some people after him. He also perished, and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered abroad.
38 And now I say to you, Do nothing to these men, but let them be: for if this teaching or this work is of men, it will come to nothing:
38 Now I tell you, withdraw from these men and leave them alone. For if this counsel or this work is of men, it will be overthrown.
39 But if it is of God, you will not be able to overcome them, and you are in danger of fighting against God.
39 But if it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow it, and you would be found even to be fighting against God!”
40 And he seemed to them to be right: and they sent for the Apostles, and, after having them whipped and giving them orders to give no teaching in the name of Jesus, they let them go.
40 They agreed with him. Summoning the apostles, they beat them and commanded them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.
41 So they went away from the Sanhedrin, happy to undergo shame for the Name.
41 They therefore departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor for Jesus’ name.
42 And every day, in the Temple and privately, they went on teaching and preaching Jesus as the Christ.
42 Every day, in the temple and at home, they never stopped teaching and preaching Jesus, the Christ.

"Having risen up," that is, being roused, being excited at the things taking place, the high-priest and they which were with him (which is the sect of the Sadducees) were filled with indignation, and laid their hands on the Apostles:" they now assault them more vigorously: "and put them in the common prison;" but did not forthwith bring them to …

… are in this witnesses of these words; as also is the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that believe in Him." "And daily," it is said, "in the temple, and from house to house, they ceased not to teach and preach Christ Jesus," the Son of God.
Was it night when, as the disciples were passing by, the sick were laid in couches, that they might be touched at least by their shadow as they passed? Yet, when the Lord was here, there was no one made whole by His shadow as He passed; but He Himself had said to the disciples, "Greater things than these shall …

As when they said, "Did not we straitly command you, that ye should not speak in this name?" although able to work any number of miracles, they neither said nor did anything harsh, but answered for themselves with all meekness, saying, "Whether it be right to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye." Hast thou seen the harmlessness …

… the blessed Paul is one, having been a little while His enemy, but for a long time His servant: the Twelve Apostles are His witnesses, having preached the truth not only in words, but also by their own torments and deaths: the shadow of Peter bears witness, having healed the sick in the name of Christ.
