    In Luke 3:5, the nominative singular feminine form occurs in the clause concerning what shall be filled. The APB renders the clause “Every valley shall be filled,” while also describing mountains, hills, crooked places, and rough ways being changed.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Luke 3:5, the APB presents the landscape term in “Every valley shall be filled.” This rendering confirms the clause’s overall presentation rather than isolating the term independently.
