Language

shiq.quy denotes a drink or beverage, appearing with bodily refreshment and in a plural construct form.

The attested use concerns drink or beverage: Proverbs 3:8 places the singular form in a clause of bodily refreshment, while Hosea 2:7 has a plural construct form whose specific contribution is not exposed by the APB translation.

Senses in use

  1. Drink or beverage in provision and refreshment · dominant

    In Proverbs 3:8 the singular absolute form occurs in the clause that the APB renders, "It will be healing to your flesh and refreshment to your bones." In Hosea 2:7 the plural construct form occurs in a verse where the APB renders the woman's pursuit of her lovers and her decision to return to her first husband; the translation does not isolate this noun's contribution.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents Proverbs 3:8 as bodily "refreshment,". In Hosea 2:7, the translation does not visibly represent the noun's specific contribution.
