Tree Of Life Version

Acts 5:8-18 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

8. Peter responded to her, “Tell me if you sold the land for this much.” She said, “Yes, for that much.”

9. Then Peter said to her, “How did you agree to test the Ruach Adonai? Look, the feet of those who buried your husband are at the door—they will carry you out, too!”

10. Immediately she fell down at his feet and died. When the young men came back in, they found her dead and carried her out and buried her beside her husband.

11. And great fear came over the whole community and all who heard these things.

12. Meanwhile, through the hands of the emissaries many signs and wonders were happening among the people. And they were all together in Solomon’s Portico.

13. But no one else dared to join them, though the people continued to think highly of them.

14. Yet more than ever those trusting in the Lord were added—large numbers of men and women.

15. They even carried the sick into the streets and laid them on stretchers and cots, so that when Peter passed by at least his shadow might fall on some of them.

16. Crowds were also gathering from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing those who were sick or tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all being healed.

17. But the kohen gadol rose up, and all those with him (that is, the sect of the Sadducees), and they were filled with jealousy.

18. They grabbed the emissaries and put them in a public jail.
