Olivier,

There has been a lot of work on word pairs in Biblical Hebrew and  
Semitic. WGE Watson gives a short discussion with references in his  
_Traditional Techniques in Classical Hebrew Verse_, which you can  
find on Google books. See especially Yitshak Avishur's dissertation  
_Stylistic Studies of Word-Pairs in Biblical and Ancient Semitic  
literatures_(AOAT 210; Neukirchen Vluyn, 1984).

There are also many articles suggesting individual word-pairs. I  
would go to your favorite bibliographic search engine, ATLA, RAMBI,  
JSTOR, etc and start tracing them down.
