Terrors encountered in the way · dominant
In Ecclesiastes 12:5, the masculine plural absolute form occurs in the clause describing terrors as being “in the way.” The APB renders the verse with fear of what is high and “terrors are in the way,” alongside images of physical decline and a person going to an eternal home.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Ecclesiastes 12:5, the APB presents the clause as “terrors are in the way.” It confirms the clause's setting without isolating each term mechanically.
