("To his anointed, to Cyrus")
Does anyone know any comparable examples where the same person is referred to twice in a row, both using back-to-back prepositional lamed?

I did a quick syntactic search in the Andersen-Forbes Phrase Marker Analysis of the Hebrew Bible in Logos, and it gave me the following "hits". I haven't checked them all, but I scanned most, and in general they seem to fit with your example. (Some might be rather different - like those from Numbers, Joshua and Judges - but I've included all the hits anyway.)
- Gen 23:7; 24:4, 14; 32:5; 32:19; 40:1; 43:28; 47:29
- Num 13:11
- Josh 13:24, 31; 19:1, 17
- Judg 5:23
- 1 Sam 24:7; 25:8; 28:17; 30:26
- 2 Sam 6:19; 7:8, 10; 18:5, 29, 32
- 1 Kgs 8:38
- Isa 22:20; 45:1
- Ezek 28:25; 37:25
- Ruth 4:3
- Ezra 7:25
- 1 Chr 15:11; 17:7; 24:21
- 2 Chr 2:9; 6:17; 31:4; 35:7
