In Deuteronomy 28:54, the masculine singular absolute form describes a man called “tender” and “very dainty” in a clause about hostility toward his family. In Deuteronomy 28:56, the feminine singular absolute form occurs of a woman whose foot had not tested the ground “from delight and from tenderness”; Isaiah 47:1 likewise uses the feminine singular form in saying that the daughter of Babylon will no longer be called “tender and dainty.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term with “dainty” in all three verses, paired with “tender.” That pairing confirms the verses' portrayal but does not isolate a separate English equivalent for the lemma.
