In Jeremiah 23:15, the feminine singular absolute noun occurs in the clause saying that this condition “has gone out to all the land” from the prophets of Jerusalem; the APB renders the clause with “profaneness.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Jeremiah 23:15, the APB presents the clause as “from the prophets of Jerusalem profaneness has gone out to all the land.” This identifies the verse-level presentation rather than a precise lexical equivalence.
