The whole BDB entry
vb. denom. take or give a pledge;— Inf. cstr. לַעֲבֹט Dt 24:10 to take possession of a thing pledged (c. acc. cogn.); Impf. 2 ms. give a pledge תַּעֲבֹט Dt 15:6 (i.e. borrow). Pf. 2 ms. וְהַעֲבַטְתָּ֫ גּוֹיִם רַבִּים v 6 and thou shalt cause many nations to give pledges (i.e. lend to them); Impf. 3 ms. sf. + Inf. abs. הַעֲבֵט תַּעֲבִיטֶנּוּ v 8 thou shalt surely lend to him (lit. as above). Impf. יְעַבְּטוּן Jo 2:7 hardly makes sense (lend on pledge = interchange?); most read יְעַבְּתוּן; יְעַוְּתוּן We, cf. Now Dr GASm; Gr יַטּוּן.
