Scales in a weighing of deficiency · dominant
In Daniel 5:27, the determined masculine plural form occurs in the clause about being weighed; the APB renders the verse, “Tekel—you have been weighed on the scales and found deficient.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Daniel 5:27, the APB presents the verse’s weighing image with “the scales.” This identifies the clause’s presentation rather than a precise token-level rendering.
