All four occurrences use a common feminine plural construct form in clauses locating something at or upon the neck. In Proverbs 1:9 the APB renders a wreath for the head and “necklaces to your neck”; Proverbs 3:3 and Proverbs 6:21 describe binding what is taught or commanded upon the neck, while Proverbs 3:22 pairs favor with it.
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB explicitly uses “neck” in each occurrence, presenting it as the location for necklaces, favor, or what is bound upon it. These renderings confirm the clauses' overall presentation rather than isolate a precise English equivalent for each token.
