Exegesis
In the second clause the noun aṣmōtāw {עַצְמוֹתָיו | ’aṣmōṯāyw} ‘his bones’ serves as subject for the Pual imperfect yešukkēh {יְשֻׁקֶּה | yešukkēh} ‘is moistened’, emphasizing inward vitality. This balanced structure highlights both external provision and inner strength, a common poetic device.
In context — Job 21:24
His pails are filled with milk, and the marrow of his bones is moistened.
