[Avodah] Repetition of Pesukim in Hallel

[Allan Engel]

When we repeat the pesukim at the end of Hallel, we say the entire pasuk
twice, with the exception of the passuk "Ana Hashem Hoshiah Na, Ana Hashem
Hatzlichah Na", where we repeat the first half of the pasuk before saying
the second half.

I am aware of the gemara in Arvei Pesachim (119a) that says that the
structure of this pasuk is "call and response", ie the second half is a
reply to the first, but this is also true of the other pesukim, such as
"Baruch Habba Besheim Hashem, Beirachnuchem Mibeis Hashem" which we say in
its entirety before repeating.

So why do we say this pasuk differently?
