    In Daniel 4:9, the singular absolute noun occurs in a verse where the APB renders Belteshazzar's request to declare the dream's visions and interpretation. In Daniel 4:18, the same form occurs in Nebuchadnezzar's request for the dream's interpretation; the APB does not isolate an English rendering for this noun in either verse.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents both verses as requests to disclose and interpret Nebuchadnezzar's dream, but its loose wording does not identify a distinct English equivalent for this noun.
