    All four occurrences are tagged Noun · Proper. In Genesis 46:24 and 1 Chronicles 7:13, the APB renders the name within lists of Naphtali's sons; in Numbers 26:48 it appears in the clause naming a clan after Guni, and in 1 Chronicles 5:15 the APB renders "son of Guni" in Ahi's paternal line.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the form as "Guni" in each verse, either in a list of Naphtali's sons, in a clan statement, or in the phrase "son of Guni." These renderings confirm the verse contexts rather than isolate every contribution of the term.
