Radak: Also Doyeg was his name. The second time this verse mentions him, it is written and pronounced Doyeg; however, in some texts also the latter is pronounced Do'eg, for usually he was called Do'eg. It seems that the latter time, when it discusses killing them, he is also pronounced Doyeg to worsen his name.
