Language

se.i.pim denotes inward disturbances, appearing in personal agitation and in the setting of night visions.

The two attestations present inward disturbances: in Job 20:2 they return within the speaker, while in Job 4:13 they occur amid night visions as deep sleep falls on people.

    In Job 20:2, the construct plural occurs in the clause in which such disturbances “return to me” and are said to be within the speaker. In Job 4:13, the absolute plural occurs amid night visions when deep sleep falls on people; the APB renders both clauses with “disquietings.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB uses “disquietings” in both cited verses: as returning to the speaker in Job 20:2 and as occurring amid night visions in Job 4:13. This rendering confirms the clauses' overall presentation rather than isolating every contribution of the term.
