    In 2 Timothy 3:6, the accusative plural neuter form occurs as the object of those who enter homes and capture them; the APB renders the clause "capture weak-willed women who have been piled up with sins and are led by various desires."

In the Anselm Project Bible: In 2 Timothy 3:6, the APB presents the group as "weak-willed women" who are burdened by sins and led by various desires. That English wording cannot isolate every contribution of the Greek form.
