   Both occurrences are feminine singular absolute participles. In Daniel 2:15 the form characterizes the king’s decree, and the APB renders the question, "Why is the decree so hasty from the king?" In Daniel 3:22 it characterizes the king’s word in the circumstance leading to the men’s death; the APB renders it as "the word of the king was urgent."

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term with "hasty" for the decree in Daniel 2:15 and "urgent" for the king’s word in Daniel 3:22. These renderings indicate the clauses’ presentation rather than separate lexical meanings.
