Senses in use

  1. Relative particle introducing a qualifying clause · dominant

    All supplied tokens are decoded as Particle · Relative. In Exodus 15:13 the APB renders a people qualified as those “whom you redeemed”; in Psalm 10:2 it renders plots qualified by what “they have devised,” while Psalm 32:8 places the term in the clause concerning the way “you should go.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB reflects the relative relationship with varied English constructions, including “whom you redeemed” in Exodus 15:13 and “they have devised” in Psalm 10:2; because it is a whole-verse translation, the particle may also be absorbed into the English clause.
