you (masculine plural) consumed him

Morphological NotesQal perfect, 2nd person masculine plural with 3rd person masculine singular pronominal suffix; denotes a completed action performed by a masculine plural subject upon a masculine singular object.
Rendering RationaleThe root אכל fundamentally denotes eating or consuming, often extending to devouring or destroying. The Qal perfect 2nd masculine plural form with a 3rd masculine singular suffix requires the rendering "you (masculine plural) consumed him," preserving both the active simple stem and the specific grammatical persons involved.
