Senses in use

  1. Bitterness filling the speaker · dominant

    In Job 9:18, the masculine plural absolute form occurs in the clause describing what fills the speaker after he is not allowed to regain breath; the APB renders the verse, "He will not let me regain my breath, but he fills me with bitterness."

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Job 9:18, the APB presents the clause as "he fills me with bitterness." This identifies the verse-level presentation rather than a precise token-by-token rendering.
