At may kasama siyang isang libong lalaki mula sa Benjamin, at si Ziba na lingkod ng sambahayan ni Saul, kasama ang kanyang labinlimang anak na lalaki at ang kanyang dalawampung lingkod; at tumawid sila sa Jordan sa harap ng hari.

Onkelos translates it וצלח [he split] as in וצלחו [they split]... It seems that Rashi is not proving from Onkelos [that ויבקע means “splitting”]. Rather, he is explaining that [also Onkelos’s translation of] צלח is “splitting,” as in (Shmuel II 19:18): “They split (וצלחו) the Jordan.”
Rashi
ויבקע AND HE CLEAVED [THE WOOD] — Its rendering in the Targum וצלח has the same meaning as the verb in (2 Samuel 19:18) And they rushed into the Jordan”, which signifies cleaving the waters; old French fendre; English to split.
