In Acts 22:7, the accusative singular neuter form occurs with Saul's falling; the APB renders the clause, "I fell to the ground and heard a voice."
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Acts 22:7, the APB presents the scene as "I fell to the ground." This confirms the clause's setting rather than isolating a precise English equivalent.
