    In 1 Kings 12:15, the feminine singular absolute noun occurs in the clause explaining why the king did not listen to the people; the APB renders the surrounding clause, "because this turn of events came from the LORD."

In the Anselm Project Bible: In 1 Kings 12:15, the APB presents the clause as "this turn of events came from the LORD." That wording confirms the verse's presentation without isolating every element of the Hebrew clause.
