    In Isaiah 41:12, the feminine singular construct form occurs in the phrase concerning people whom the addressee will seek but not find; the APB renders the clause "the men of your strife" and then describes them as becoming "as nothing."

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Isaiah 41:12, the APB presents the phrase as "the men of your strife." This rendering confirms the verse's conflict setting without isolating every element of the original phrase.
