For alternative plural "ears" see Kennicott 73, 74, 76, 133, 172, 192, 266 (VTH vol. 4, 373), אזניכם, as well as TgPss (אודניכון) and the Syr. (ܐ̈ܕܢܝܟܘܢ). 11Q6, however, lacks any sign of the plural yod, with אוזנכמה. Although the semantic result is plural "ears" in any case— indicated by plural addressees—it is not unheard of to refer to a group's hearing with a singular collective (see also Isa 55:3; Jer 9:19; 25:4; 35:15).
