   In Daniel 2:5 and Daniel 3:29, the feminine singular absolute form occurs in the decree that disobedient parties' houses are to be made a refuse heap. In Ezra 6:11, the same form occurs in the stated penalty that a man's house is to be made a rubbish heap.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB renders the house's resulting condition as a "refuse heap" in Daniel 2:5 and Daniel 3:29, and as a "rubbish heap" in Ezra 6:11. These renderings identify the clause's outcome rather than isolate the term mechanically.
