   In Deuteronomy 27:2 and Deuteronomy 27:4, the singular absolute noun occurs in the command to set up stones and coat them; the APB renders the action as whitewashing them “with lime.” In Amos 2:1, it occurs in the charge that Moab burned the king of Edom's bones “to lime,” and Isaiah 33:12 compares peoples with “lime kilns” and thorns set on fire.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term as “lime” in the stone-coating command and the account of burned bones, and as “lime kilns” in the fire comparison. These renderings confirm the clauses' overall presentation rather than establish finer distinctions.
