If you exempted it in full, yes. If you did not exempt it, and you knew before you filed that you would be getting it, you have committed a fraud on the court and perjury. If you were entitled to receive it before or within 180 days after the bankruptcy (chapter 7) was closed or you got your discharge, it goes to the trustee. If you did not know you were entitled to or going to receive this money before or during or within 180 days after the discharge, and you got it more than 180 days after discharge, yes, you can.
Some pensions are exempt under state or federal law, so consult a local attorney if you are not sure.

If you take your pension at age 55 and still work is there a penalty?
Although you can retire at any age, you can only get your State Pension when you reach State Pension age. The earliest you can receive a company or personal pension is 55 - but this depends on your pension scheme rules. If you're retiring because of ill-health you may be able to take your benefits before this age. If you have serious ill-health and your life expectancy is less than a year then you can retire at any age. You can take up to 100 per cent of your pension fund as a tax-free lump sum. If you're married or have a civil partner, up to 50 per cent of the pension fund may be retained by the scheme. This will be used to provide for a survivor's pension.
