   In Psalm 138:8, the Qal imperfect occurs in the clause the APB renders “The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me,” providing the clearest completion context. The active participle in Psalm 57:3 appears in a verse about God sending from heaven to save, while the perfect forms in Psalm 12:2 and Psalm 77:9 and the jussive in Psalm 7:10 occur in clauses whose APB wording does not transparently identify this verb’s specific English counterpart.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB most clearly presents the term’s context with “fulfill his purpose” in Psalm 138:8. In Psalm 57:3, Psalm 12:2, Psalm 77:9, and Psalm 7:10, the translation does not clearly mark a corresponding English expression, so its wording cannot securely specify the verb’s individual rendering.
