It is alike that the instance in Hb 3:16 isn't but a literal copy, by
mimetism, of the same word that appears in Gn 49:19.
In a general way, it is quite true that the third person singular masculine
-nu has dagesh while the first person (common) plural -nu lacks it.
Now..... there are exceptions.
Look here
www.oham.net/out/S-t/S-t1700p.html
Also compare (WRENW, our skin (Lm 5:10) with (WDENNW, still he/him (Gn
28:22) ----> -NW (our) versus -NNW (he, him, his)
