In Judges 3:15 the APB renders the name in identifying a deliverer, and Judges 3:16, Judges 3:20, Judges 3:21, Judges 3:23, and Judges 3:26 render it as the actor who makes a sword, speaks, takes it, leaves, and escapes; in 1 Chronicles 7:10 the APB includes the name in Bilhan's list of sons.
In the Anselm Paraphrase: The APB consistently presents the form as the name "Ehud" in both the Judges narrative and the genealogical list of 1 Chronicles 7:10. Because the paraphrase is not word-aligned, its English name form confirms the verse-level identification rather than supplying a lexical definition.
