3 Pierre lui dit: Ananias, pourquoi Satan a-t-il rempli ton cœur, au point que tu mentes au Saint-Esprit, et que tu aies retenu une partie du prix du champ?
4 S’il n’eût pas été vendu, ne te restait-il pas? Et, après qu’il a été vendu, le prix n’était-il pas à ta disposition? Comment as-tu pu mettre en ton cœur un pareil dessein? Ce n’est pas à des hommes que tu as menti, mais à Dieu.
5 Ananias, entendant ces paroles, tomba, et expira. Une grande crainte saisit tous les auditeurs.
6 Les jeunes gens, s’étant levés, l’enveloppèrent, l’emportèrent, et l’ensevelirent.
