Possible error in the interlinear

In the NASB95 and ESV translations, there appears to be a discrepency with the Hebrew word in Psalm 93 v2. The word is "old." The interlinear shows the Strong number H227. However, when I checked the hardcopy of the NASB Strongest Concordance, the number is H3975b. When I check the LOGOS NASB Dictionary, the H227 does not indicate that it is translated "old;" however, H3975b does show that it is translated at least once as "old." Can anyone shed light on this issue. It should be noted that H227 is shown in Hebrew as אָז while H3975b is מֵאָז. The two are identical except for the last character on H3975b. Any assistance would be appreciated.

    If you look up the lemma the lexicons that have it will show Strong's Hebrew 227, The NAS Bible and NAS Dictionaries use an amended system of Strong's numbers which is reflected in Libronix  but Logos4 uses the original system of Strong's Number throughout, even in the NAS Bible.
