Acts 5:41

King James Version (1769) with Strongs Numbers and Morphology
But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,
2
But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land?
4
And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.
6
And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in.
8
Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out.
10
And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.
12
And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them.
14
Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.
16
Then the high priest rose up, and all they that were with him, (which is the sect of the Sadducees,) and were filled with indignation,
18
But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison doors, and brought them forth, and said,
20
And when they heard that, they entered into the temple early in the morning, and taught. But the high priest came, and they that were with him, and called the council together, and all the senate of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.
22
Saying, The prison truly found we shut with all safety, and the keepers standing without before the doors: but when we had opened, we found no man within.
24
Then came one and told them, saying, Behold, the men whom ye put in prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people.
26
And when they had brought them, they set them before the council: and the high priest asked them,
28
Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.
30
Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
32
When they heard that, they were cut to the heart, and took counsel to slay them.
34
And said unto them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what ye intend to do as touching these men.
36
After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing, and drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as obeyed him, were dispersed.
38
But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.
40
And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.
