| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, perfect (suffix conjugation), 3rd person common plural; passive form (Qal passive), indicating completed action affecting a plural subject. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is Qal perfect 3rd person common plural in the passive voice, indicating a completed action experienced by “they.” Rendering it as “they were eaten up” preserves both the passive morphology and the root sense of being consumed or devoured. |
