Rashi, on Jer 51:11

“Sharpen the arrows, fill the quivers, the Lord hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: and his mind is against Babylon to destroy it, because it is the vengeance of the Lord, the vengeance of his temple.”

“Polish Heb. הברו, an expression of cleaning. the quivers Heb. השלטים, the quivers into which the arrows are placed.”
