na.ah denotes places of habitation, including pastureland and inhabited or desolate sites described by their setting.

The attested use describes places of habitation or settlement, especially sites identified with grazing, wilderness, or grass; the same plural construct form also occurs where such places are characterized by peace, Jacob, or violence.

   The construct plural names locations characterized by their setting: in Amos 1:2 and Jeremiah 23:10 the APB renders clauses about places associated with those who pasture and with the wilderness, while Joel 1:19 and Joel 1:20 describe wilderness locations consumed by fire. Psalm 23:2 and Psalm 65:13 place the form in scenes of grass, flocks, and productive land; Lamentations 2:2 and Jeremiah 25:37 show comparable places in contexts of overthrow and silence.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB variously presents the surrounding clauses with “habitations,” “pastures,” “meadows,” and “haunts.” These are contextual renderings of the verses rather than fixed equivalents for the term.
