The weight measure that is translated as “bath” or with a modern equivalent in English is translated in the 1989 Tsonga BIBELE Mahungu Lamanene into a measurement of what a traditional container can hold rather than weight: yinkho or “large jar” for water, wine and milk or “10 calabashes” for oil (see 2 Chronicles 2:10).
