In Nahum 2:6, the form סֹּכֵֽךְ is a common masculine singular absolute noun in a clause whose supplied APB rendering says, “The gates of the River are opened, and the temple melts.” The verse supports a protective referent at gloss level, while the translation does not identify a distinct English equivalent for the noun.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Nahum 2:6, the APB renders the surrounding scene as “The gates of the River are opened, and the temple melts,” but it does not clearly mark a separate English rendering for the noun.
