In Job 7:4, the masculine plural absolute form occurs in the speaker's statement that he is full of this condition until dawn, while lying down and waiting for the night to end. The APB renders the clause, "and I am full of tossing until dawn."
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Job 7:4 the APB presents the clause as being "full of tossing until dawn." This rendering confirms the verse's nighttime distress without isolating every contribution of the noun.
