In Numbers 26:26, the original form is a masculine singular gentilic within the sequence of Zebulun’s clan designations. The APB renders the surrounding clause "and Jahleel, the clan of the Jahleelites," placing the term in a lineage-and-clan listing.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Numbers 26:26, the APB presents the clause as "the clan of the Jahleelites." The precise English correspondence of the gentilic form cannot be isolated beyond its clan-list context.
