**The whole BDB entry:** ψ 88:16 (ἅπ. λεγ. DlPr 135 f. comp. Assyrian appuna(ma) adv. = maʾdiš, very, very much, but dub.; Thes MV form from √ פון, & comp. Arabic أَفَنَ diminuit, mente diminuit (Frey), hence be confused, helpless, cf. 𝔊 ἐξηπορήθην; 𝔙 conturbatus sum; others emend אָפוּגָה or אֶפּוֹגָה from פּוּג q.v., but vb. not needed for parallelism. Arabic أَفَنَ in fact = milk (camel, etc.) dry, empty; مأفون = empty-headed man; this does not support be confused, helpless (GFM, privately)).

Why these entries: BDB: another headword, part of speech not compared, 1 of its verses cited, 0 words shared with the glosses, lists its Strong's number (3 candidates); OSHB: headword, part of speech agrees, 0 words shared with the BDB entry, 0 with the glosses (3 candidates)
