    In Daniel 4:1, the form is a masculine singular absolute adjective. The APB renders the verse as Nebuchadnezzar's address to the peoples, nations, and languages, ending with “may your peace increase,” but its loose wording does not isolate the adjective's referent.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Daniel 4:1, the APB presents Nebuchadnezzar's proclamation and the wish that peace increase; It does not clearly identify an English rendering for this adjective.
