    In Isaiah 15:5, the proper-noun form occurs in the clause about ascending the ascent of Luhith with weeping; the APB renders this as “he ascends by the ascent of Luhith.” In Jeremiah 48:5, the proper-noun forms occur in the corresponding clause of people going up with weeping; the APB renders “on the ascent of Luhith they go up with weeping.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across both verses, the APB presents the term as “Luhith” within “the ascent of Luhith.” The wording confirms the clause's setting rather than isolating every contribution of the term.
