وَيُطَافُ عَلَيْهِم بِـَٔانِيَةٍ مِّن فِضَّةٍ وَأَكْوَابٍ كَانَتْ قَوَارِيرَا۠

Alternative: be due

Research rendering: vessels

At 76:15 silver آنية are passed around in coordination with cups and then described as glasslike vessels. Substituting a due or heated state for this countable serving object contradicts the construction, so this exact segment is a lexical collision. The silver items are passed around alongside cups, identifying them as serving containers.
