    Both occurrences are tagged as a proper noun. In 1 Chronicles 6:31 the APB renders a statement about people appointed over the song service of the house of the LORD, though it does not visibly isolate this name; in Nehemiah 11:12 the APB explicitly places “Amzi” in the line of descent leading to Adaiah.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB explicitly includes “Amzi” in Nehemiah 11:12, while 1 Chronicles 6:31 renders the surrounding appointment statement without visibly isolating the name. Its wording does not establish a separate rendering for the term.
