There are some Imperative forms in the Bible that consist of three letters of which the middle one is yud, which are, so to say, normal. I mean for example LYN (Jdg 19:9) or &YM (Gn 24:2).

But sometimes this type of Imperative takes a paragogic heh as in &YMH (1Sa 8:5) or $YTH (Ps 9:21) or RYBH (Ps 35:1)

I'm wondering: as regards these latter, are these words as a rule always oxytone?
