anklet
e.khes denotes an anklet in an ornament list and occurs in a comparison whose precise contribution is unclear.
The attested evidence identifies e.khes with an ankle ornament in Isaiah 3:18; its singular occurrence in Proverbs 7:22 is set within a comparison, but the translation does not isolate its contribution clearly enough to establish a distinct sense.

In Isaiah 3:18, the masculine plural form occurs in a list of items whose beauty the Lord will remove; the APB renders the list with “anklets.” In Proverbs 7:22, the masculine singular form stands in a comparison about a man following suddenly, but the APB does not clearly show how the term is represented there.
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB explicitly includes “anklets” in Isaiah 3:18. In Proverbs 7:22 it renders the surrounding comparison about an ox and a fool, without an identifiable English counterpart for the singular form.
