Acts 1:17-19
1599 Geneva Bible
17 For he was numbered with us, and had obtained fellowship in this ministration.
18 He therefore hath [a]purchased a field with the reward of iniquity: and when (A)he had [b]thrown down himself headlong, he brast asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.
19 And it is known unto all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, insomuch, that that field is called in their own language, Akel Dama, that is, The field of blood.

- Acts 1:18 The Greek words signify thus much, that Judas fell down flat and was rent in sunder in the middle, with a marvelous huge noise.
