Isaiah 42:11 Douay-Rheims

Let the desert and the cities thereof be exalted: Cedar shall dwell in houses: ye inhabitants of Petra, give praise, they shall cry from the top of the mountains.

Ibn Ezra

1089–1167 Jewish

The plain and the cities thereof shall lift up their voice, etc. Every plain and the cities thereof, all villages which are inhabited by Kedar, etc.; the tribe of Kedar always lived in the plain. The inhabitants of the rock, the nations that live in the rocks. ירנו Shall shout. Comp. הרנה the cry (1 Kings 22:36). יצוהו Shall lift up their voice. It is used both in a good and a bad sense. Comp. צוחה crying (24:11).
