The singular noun identifies acts opposed to just conduct: in Ezekiel 18:26 the APB renders a righteous person as turning and "commits injustice," then dying because of what he has done. In Leviticus 19:15 and Leviticus 19:35 it occurs in commands concerning judgment and measures, while Deuteronomy 25:16 places it in conduct described by the APB as acting "dishonestly." Job 34:10 excludes such action from God, and Ezekiel 28:18 places the construct form in a clause about merchandise.
In the Anselm Project Bible: Across the supplied verses, the APB commonly uses "injustice," while also rendering clauses with "unjust judgments," "dishonestly," and "wrong." Because the APB is a whole-verse translation text, these English expressions show the verses' presentation rather than fixed individual renderings.
