Gary and others,
I believe that Martin has the correct assessment here, except that, rather than this being a confusion, it is probably simply an option open to the writer. Waltke-O'Connor give a number of examples in *IBHS* 7.4b; and Joüon-Muraoka discuss the phenomenon in 90.3. It is also discussed in *GKC* 87e. Most of these are poetic and later texts. Other places where this occurs are Judg 5:10; 1 Kgs 11:33; 2 Kgs 11:13; Ezek 4:9; 26:18; Micah 3:12; Job 4:2; 24:22; 31:10; Prov 31:3; Lam 1:4; 4:3.
