    In 1 Chronicles 12:3, the form is tagged Noun · Proper and occurs in a list of named individuals; the APB renders the clause "and Jeziel and Pelet son of Azmaveth." In 1 Chronicles 2:47, the same proper-noun form appears in the list of Jahdai's sons; the APB renders "The sons of Jahdai were Regem, Jotham, Geshan, Pelet, Ephah, and Shaaph."

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term as "Pelet" in both verses, once within a list that identifies him as son of Azmaveth and once among Jahdai's sons. These list contexts, together with the proper-noun tags, identify its contribution.
