Ibn Ezra on Numbers 14:3/אבן עזרא על במדבר י״ד:ג׳

אשוב מצרימה. שם הפועל כמו לא אוכל קום ומלך אלקום עמו:
1TO RETURN INTO EGYPT. Shuv (to return) is an infinitive.4 can also be an imperative. Hence I.E.’s comment. It is like the word kum (to stand)5 can also be an imperative. in I am not able to stand (Lam. 1:14) and kum (rising up) in And the king, against whom there is no rising up (Prov. 30:31).
