[Mesorah] Articulation Question - Correction

In my previous post, I mistakenly wrote that the Keter Yerushalayim 
displays a meteg under the yud in "yachla" in Shemot 2:3.  It does not. 
    The Koren Tanach, however, does.  (Sorry for the confusion.)

Restating the query, in my copy of R' Breuer's Tanach (Mossad HaRav 
Kook), in Shemot 2:3, there is no meteg under the yud in "yachla" (more 
fully, "v'lo-yachla od") but there is one in Ber. 36:7.  In Shemot, v'lo 
and yachla are connected by a makef; they are separate in Bereishit.  As 
stated above, the Koren Tanach does show a meteg but the Keter 
Yerushalayim does not in Shemot.

Any thoughts on the difference would be appreciated.  Thanks.
