The whole BDB entry

n.pr.fl. (√ prob. בקק; so Thes after Simonis, Sam. Di) מַעֲבַר (ה)יבק Gn 32:23 (where perhaps connected with אבק = יאבק); נַ֫חַל יַבּ׳ Dt 2:37, יַבּ׳ הַנַּחַל Dt 3:16 Jos 12:2, יַבֹּק Nu 21:24 (‖ אַרְנֹן, cf. Dt 3:16 Jos 12:2), הַיַּבֹּק Nu 11:13, 22 (in both, ‖ ארנון); it empties into Jordan from East, in latitude of Shechem; called (southern) boundary of Ammon Shiloh; N. border of Amorites, Nu 21:24 (v. Di), Ju 11:22; in its upper course it runs S. to N., hence (W.) border of Ammon, Dt 3:16 and (northern) of Amorites (cf. 2:37), Jos 12:2; but some confusion (Di Nu 21:24 Dt 2:37);—mod. Wady Zerqa BdPal. 181.
