Seems to me that root HB (see also the double HBHB of Hos. 8:13) is a  
variant of GB, HB, XB, KB, QB
גב, הב, חב, כב, קב
and GP, XP, KP, QP
גף, חף, כף, קף
of a remarkable similarity to the English 'have', and 'give'.

Accordingly, I would not exclude the possibility that יהבך YHABKA  
of Ps. 55:23(22) is 'your body', namely, your XUB, GUP.
