In Song of Songs 1:8, the feminine plural construct form occurs in the instruction to go out after the flock and near the tents of shepherds. The APB renders the verse with the command, “shepherd a kid by the tents of shepherds,”.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Song of Songs 1:8, the APB presents the scene as “shepherd a kid by the tents of shepherds.” This wording confirms the shepherding context without isolating every feature of the plural construct form.
