| Then Peter asked, “Ananias, why has Satan so gained control of your heart that you lied to the Holy Spirit and retained part of the sale price of the land? While it remained unsold, did it not belong to you? And after it was sold, were not the proceeds yours? What caused you to contrive this scheme? You have lied not to men but to God.” | “Ananias,” Peter asked, “why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back part of the proceeds of the land? While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, were not the proceeds at your disposal? How is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart? You did not lie to us but to God!” |
| And we are witnesses to these things, as is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey him. | And we are witnesses to these things, and so is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey him. |
| And every day, both in the temple and at home, they never stopped teaching and proclaiming Jesus as the Christ. | And every day in the temple and at home they did not cease to teach and proclaim Jesus as the Messiah. |
