In 2 Samuel 22:30 the first-person imperfect occurs in the clause the APB renders "I can leap over a wall." In Isaiah 35:6, Song of Songs 2:8, and Zephaniah 1:9, the forms occur respectively with a lame person leaping like a deer, a beloved coming upon mountains and hills, and people upon a threshold. Psalm 18:30 has the same first-person imperfect form as 2 Samuel 22:30, though its supplied APB rendering does not show the corresponding clause.
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the action with "leap" or "leaping" in 2 Samuel 22:30, Isaiah 35:6, Song of Songs 2:8, and Zephaniah 1:9. Its rendering of Psalm 18:30 does not visibly reflect the verb.
