sheep
tso.neh denotes sheep as animals belonging to those addressed in a building instruction; its Psalm occurrence is not isolated by the APB.
The attested use identifies sheep as animals belonging to those addressed in Numbers 32:24. In Psalm 8:8, the absolute form occurs in a verse whose APB rendering lists birds and fish, so the translation does not isolate this term’s contribution.

In Numbers 32:24, the construct form occurs in the instruction to build cities for children and walls for the animals belonging to the addressees; the APB renders that clause “walls for your sheep.” In Psalm 8:8, the absolute form occurs in a verse whose APB rendering names “The bird of the heavens and the fish of the sea,” without isolating this term.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Numbers 32:24, the APB includes “your sheep.” In Psalm 8:8, its rendering lists birds and fish instead, so the translation does not visibly represent the term there.
