Ibn Ezra on Genesis 19:33/אבן עזרא על בראשית י״ט:ל״ג

אבְשכבָהּ. שם הפועל, ואם היא בחירק, וכן "בְשִבְרִי לכם" (ויקרא כו כו):
1WHEN SHE LAY DOWN. Be-shichvah (when she lay down) is an infinitive even though it is vocalized with a chirik beneath the shin.54 beneath the shin. Be-shivri55 beneath the first letter of the root. in When I break (be-shivri) your staff of bread (Lev. 26:26) is similar.
