1. Ke kaloku kwakukho nendoda egama linguHananiya, umfazi wayo yena enguSafira. Bathengisa umhlaba wabo,
2. baza inxalenye yemali leyo bayifumeneyo bayigcina, eseleyo ke bayizisa *kubathunywa.
3. UPetros wabuza wathi: “Hananiya, kutheni ukuba umyeke uSathana alawule intliziyo yakho, akwenze uxokise uMoya oyiNgcwele ngokugcina inxalenye yemali oyifumeneyo ngomhlaba wakho?
4. Umhlaba wakho ubungowakho phambi kokuba uwuthengise, nemali yawo ibiyeyakho emveni kokuba uwuthengisile. Kungani ke ukuba ufike kwisigqibo sokwenza into enje? Awuxokisanga mntu, uxokise uThixo.”
5. Akuweva loo mazwi uHananiya wawa phantsi, wafa; baza bonke abayivayo loo nto bankwantya luloyiko.
6. Bafika abafana, bawuthatha bawuthandela umzimba wakhe, baya kumngcwaba.
