I would enter, but nearly all of my lexica are back home in Puerto Rico, and I’m ashamed to show what little I have here. 😉
Whatever excuses you wish to make for your lack of creativity are duly noted, good sir… 😉
Oh yeah? Well, here is my sorrowful picture, featuring only the OLD, Pabón’s Greek-Spanish dictionary, Fohrer’s Hebrew and Aramaic Dictionary of the OT in English and Spanish edition, the Moulton-Geden Concordance of the Greek Testament, and the Hatch-Redpath Concordance of the Septuagint:
The empty spaces are making me cry. It’s the sorrow of exile.
😉
Ha! Now that’s more like it!
Drat, I forgot to pull the Even-Shoshan “New Concordance” of the Hebrew OT and the 2-vol. Theological Wordbook of the OT for the picture — those are here as well.
So, do I win by default? 😉
