Dear Yitzhak,

BHS,  which uses  Leningrad Codex [B19A(L)] has QINNIYM ( קִנִּים ) in Genesis
6:14 and QINIYM ( קִנִים )Ezekiel 2:10.

The NIV Triglot OT, using the text of van der Hooght (1705) as edited by Hahn
(1831) has QINNIYM ( קנִים ) in Genesis 6:14 and QIYNIYM  ( קִינִים ) in 
Ezekiel
2:10.

Thus, it appears that we have two different textual traditions being used.

Rev. Bryant J. Williams III
