The feminine singular absolute form occurs with a wound in Isaiah 1:6, where the APB renders the clause “wound and bruise and fresh wound” and says it was not treated. The same form describes a donkey’s jawbone in Judges 15:15; the APB renders “a fresh jawbone of a donkey” before it is taken and used to strike down men.
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB uses “fresh” in both “fresh wound” in Isaiah 1:6 and “fresh jawbone of a donkey” in Judges 15:15. These renderings confirm the clause contexts rather than establish a separate English equivalent for each occurrence.
