sa.day occurs chiefly in clauses concerning fields or open ground, including their creatures, produce, and vegetation.

The attested contexts chiefly place this noun in statements about fields or open ground: their produce, animals, vegetation, and inhabitants. In a few verses, the APB’s loose phrasing does not isolate the noun’s contribution clearly enough to establish a separate use.

1. Field or open ground in land-related clauses · dominant

   In Psalm 96:12 the noun occurs in the clause that the APB renders, “Let the field exult and all that is in it,” while Psalm 104:11 and Isaiah 56:9 place it in clauses about animals associated with the field. Deuteronomy 32:13 and Lamentations 4:9 connect the surrounding clauses with the field’s fruit, and Joel 2:22 speaks of beasts and green pastures in a setting of renewed vegetation.
