Their roaring like that of a lion, they shall roar like young lions: yea they shall roar, and take hold of the prey, and they shall keep fast hold of it, and there shall be none to deliver it.
Ibn Ezra
וינהום And he shall roar. Irregular form; because regularly the guttural letter widens the vowel, and causes the form of the future to be like ,יִפְעַל the second radical of the verb פעל being a guttural; in the conjugation tables, however, no notice is taken of this property, else we should not have in the paradigm the standard form of the future ויפליט יִפְצוֹל And he lets escape. He lets escape the prey, as I think, in order to see whether there is any one to deliver it.
