le.vi refers to lions, including those threatened by the sword in Nahum 2:13.

The attested use concerns lions: Nahum 2:13 places them among what the sword will consume, while Psalm 57:5 has a plural form whose specific contribution is not represented in the supplied APB wording.

Senses in use

  1. Lions in plural reference · dominant

    In Nahum 2:13, the plural construct form occurs in the clause where the sword will eat “your lions”; the APB renders the clause “the sword will eat your lions.” Psalm 57:5 has a plural absolute form, but the supplied APB renders only the appeal for God’s exaltation and does not isolate the term’s contribution.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Nahum 2:13, the APB explicitly includes “your lions.” In Psalm 57:5, its supplied translation does not show a corresponding animal term, so the term’s specific rendering cannot be identified there.
