מִנְלֶה . To such a noun is commonly referred the form מִנְלָם in the words, Job 15:29, לֹא יִטֶּה לָאָרֶץ מִנְלָם which are thus rendered, “their wealth shall not spread itself out in the earth;” מִנְלֶה is derived from the root נָלָה, of which there is another trace in the common reading כַּנְּלוֹתְךָ Isaiah 33:1, which is supposed to mean the same as the نال Med. Ye, to obtain, to acquire; whence نَالُ, نَيْلُ wealth, possession, مَنَالُ wealth, riches. But I can hardly regard the reading as being correct; perhaps (with one MS.) we should read מִכְלָם from מִכְלֶה i.q. מִכְלָא their fold, poet. their flocks. The words in the passage in Isaiah appear just as doubtful [but there no various reading is quoted]; see נָלָה.
