   In Acts 5:5, the form follows Ananias's falling down after hearing the words; in Acts 5:10, it follows Sapphira's fall at his feet, after which she is found dead and buried. In Acts 12:23, it follows an angel's striking of the man and his becoming worm-eaten; the APB renders the clause with "he expired."

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across Acts 5:5, Acts 5:10, and Acts 12:23, the APB renders the relevant death clause with "expired." This rendering confirms the verse context rather than isolating the term independently.
