This may reflect the dialect of Hebrew preserved in the Sephardic pronunciation of Hebrew as well as the socalled Palestinian Pointing (Nikud Eretz-Yisraeli). 3 Hufal 3 rd masculine plural perfect שׂום they were placed. The Historical Dictionary of the Academy of the Hebrew Languages has 20 instances of this exact form.

(6) And both of them were righteous before Yehovah and walking in all the statutes and judgements of Yehovah, without guile, (7) and they did not have children; Elisheva was barren and both of them were advanced in years. (8) And the Kohen Zechariah had the priesthood before Adona[i] Yehovah 8 in the order of his family, (9) according to the custom of the service of the priesthood, the lot fell upon him to present the incense. And he came into the sanctuary of ז כ ר י ה מ בּ נ י מ בּ נ י א ה ר ן ו א ש תוֹ א ב י ה וּש מ הּ א ל יש ב ע (6) ו י ה יוּ ש נ יה ם צ ד יק ים ל פ נ י י הוֹ ה ו הוֹל כ ים ב כ ל חוּק י וּמ ש פ ט י י הוֹ ה ב ל ת י ע ר מ ה (7) וּב נ ים ל א ה יוּ ל ה ם כ י א ל יש ב ע ה י ת ה ע ק ר ה וּש נ יה ם ב א ים ב י מ ים: ו י ה י (8) ז כ ר י ה ה כ הוּנ ה ב כּ ה ן 7 ל פ נ י אדנ[י] מ ש פ ח תוֹ (9) ה כּ הוּנ ה י הוֹ ה ב ס ד ר כ מ נ ה ג ע בוֹד ת ב א ה גוֹר ל ע ל יו ל שׂ ים א ת ה ק ט ר ת: ו י ב א ב ה יכ ל 7?ל כּ ה ן Should be 8 The scribe apparently scratched out Adonai and replaced it with Yehovah.

(18) And Zechariah said to the angel, How will I know this matter, for I am old and my wife is advanced in years?

(21) And the people were waiting for Zechariah and wondering because of his delay in the sanctuary. (22) And when he came out outside, he was not able to speak with them. And they knew he saw a vision in the sanctuary. And he was gesturing to them, ל פ נ י י הוֹ ה ו נ ש ל ח ת י ל ד ב ר א ל י וּל ה ג יד ל ה דּ ב ר ים ה א ל ה ו ה נּ ה (20) א ת ה ת ה י ה א ל ם ו ל א תוּכ ל ל ד ב ר ע ד ה יוֹם א שׁ ר י ע שׂוּ ה דּ ב ר ים ה א לּ ה ע ל א ש ר ל א ה א מ נ ת ל ד ב ר י א ש ר י ת מ ל אוּ ב ע ת ם.

(26) And in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from Yehovah, in a city of the Galilee, and its name was Natzaret, (27) to a certain virgin who was betrothed to a man and his name was Yoseph from the House of David

8 and the name of the virgin was Miryam. (28) And when the angel came to her he said, Shalom to you, full of grace, Yehovah is with you, 12 you are blessed among women. (29) And she looked and was frightened because of his words. And she was thinking, What sort of Shalom was this? (30) And the angel said to her, Do not fear, Miryam. For you have found favor before Yehovah. (31) Behold you are pregnant and will give birth to a son and will call his name Yeshua. (32) This one will be great מ ר י ם.

The Historical Dictionary of the Academy of the Hebrew Language documents 164 instances of this form. 12 The Hebrew is ambiguous and can mean Yehovah is with you or Yehovah be with you. The former is a statement, while the latter is a blessing. This ambiguity plays a key role in this passage as well as in Judges 6:12-13.

And there will be no end to his kingdom. (34) And Miryam said to the angel, How will this be, for I have not known a man? (35) And the angel answered and said to her, The Ru ach HaKadosh 15 will enter you and an exalted might will be in your shadow. Because he that will be born will be holy, he shall be called Son of Yehovah. ו י ק ר א ב ן ע ל יוֹן ו י ת ן ו י הוֹ ה א ה ים כ ס א ד ו ד א ב יו (33) ו י מ ו ע ל ב ית י ע ק ב ל עוֹל ם. ו ל א י ה י ה ק ץ ל מ ל כוּתוֹ.

(2) This was in the beginning next to Elohim. (3) All things were made through him and without him nothing was made from all that was. (4) In him was life. And life was the light of men.

(7) This one came in testimony, to testify concerning the light in order that they would believe everything because of him. (8) He was not the light, but only testifying concerning the light. (9) It was true light, to shed light on all to every man who enters into This World. (10) He was in the world and the world was made through him. And the world did not recognize him. (11) He came to his true homeland and the children of his house did not accept him. ה כ ילוּהוּ.
