The attested use concerns a person's inner moral condition: it can be upright, weak, or subject to the LORD's knowledge, testing, and weighing.

   In Proverbs 17:3 and Proverbs 21:2, the plural form occurs in clauses where the LORD tests or weighs what is within people; Proverbs 24:12 similarly asks whether the one who weighs hearts discerns a claimed lack of knowledge. In Psalm 125:4 and Psalm 7:10, the APB renders people as upright “in their hearts” and “in heart,” while Ezekiel 16:30 describes a singular heart as weak in connection with the deeds addressed. Proverbs 15:11 places human hearts before the LORD alongside Sheol and Abaddon.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB commonly presents the term with “hearts,” including clauses about testing and weighing; Psalm 7:10 has singular “heart,” and Ezekiel 16:30 has “your heart.” These renderings confirm the clauses' overall presentation rather than fixing a separate English equivalent in each verse.
