Pi`el 3 masculine plural, probably denominative from לֶקֶשׁ = take the aftermath, i.e. take everything (Wetzst in De Hiob 26,6) (> Buhl II. לקשׁ, compare Arabic 
schnell zusammenraffen [compare Lane2668]); — despoil; וְכֶרֶם רָשָׁע יְלֵַקּשׁוּ ׃ Job 24:6 and the vineyard of the wicked (but read probably עָשִׁיר the rich Bu Du) they despoil ("" קָצַר).
לשׁד (√ of following, compare Arabic 
suck, lick (Ethiopic 
butter); so Thes and on Psalm 32:4 De Bae, also Di Numbers 11:8).
לָקַשׁ unused in Kal; Syr. Pael to be ripe, late (used of fruit); whence מַלְקוֹשׁ the latter rain, and לֶקֶשׁ hay of the latter growth. Hence
Piel, to gather late fruit, i.e. to glean, Job 24:6 (where some copies act as interpreters by reading לקטו).
