Acts

26: 14When we had all fallen (katapiptō) to the ground, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew language, 'Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It hurts you to kick against the goads.'
28: 6They were expecting him to swell up or fall (katapiptō) down dead, but after they had waited a long time and saw that nothing unusual had happened to him, they changed their minds and began to say that he was a god.
