In Deuteronomy 28:5 and Deuteronomy 28:17, the singular construct form occurs alongside a basket as that pair is declared blessed or cursed; the APB renders the clause with “your kneading trough.” In Exodus 12:34, the plural construct form occurs in the account of dough taken before leavening, and the APB renders “their kneading bowls” as being bound in mantles and carried on shoulders.
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term as “kneading trough” in Deuteronomy 28:5 and Deuteronomy 28:17, and as “kneading bowls” in Exodus 12:34. These renderings describe the clauses rather than establish separate senses.
