Can somebody tell me if there is any significant differance between the
words na`ar and yeled?

In 2Ki 2:23 It says some children (na`ar) came and mocked him. Then in the
next verse (24) it says that he cursed them, and that a she bear came and
tore 42 children (yeled). Why the differant words?

TIA
