Then Peter said, “Ananias, how has Satan so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit? You’ve kept some of the money you received for your land. Didn’t the land belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, you could have used the money any way you wanted. How could you do such a thing? You haven’t just lied to people, you’ve lied to God.”
When Ananias heard this, he fell down and died. Everyone who heard what had happened became very afraid.
