New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Acts 4
³⁰ while You extend Your hand to heal, and signs and wonders take place through the name of Your holy servant Jesus."
³¹ And when they had prayed, the place where they had gathered together was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak the word of God with boldness.
³² And the congregation of those who believed were of one heart and soul; and not one of them claimed that anything belonging to him was his own, but all things were common property to them.
³³ And with great power the apostles were giving testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and abundant grace was upon them all.
³⁴ For there was not a needy person among them, for all who were owners of land or houses would sell them and bring the proceeds of the sales
³⁵ and lay them at the apostles’ feet, and they would be distributed to each as any had need.
³⁶ Now Joseph, a Levite of Cyprian birth, who was also called Barnabas by the apostles (which translated means Son of Encouragement),
³⁷ and who owned a tract of land, sold it and brought the money and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
Acts 5
¹ But a man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property,
² and kept back some of the price for himself, with his wife’s full knowledge, and bringing a portion of it, he laid it at the apostles’ feet.
³ But Peter said, "Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back some of the price of the land?
