Isaiah 22:17
Douay-Rheims
Behold the Lord will cause thee to be carried away, as a cock is carried away, and he will lift thee up as a garment.
Ibn Ezra
מטלטלך Will carry thee away. Reduplication of טול to carry. Comp. ויטילו And they cast (Jon. 1:5). גבר O man. Thou, who thinkest that thou art mighty. Comp. והיית לאיש and show thyself a man (1 Kgs. 2:2). גבר is here the vocative case. It can also mean as the carrying away of a man. I prefer the first explanation.
Hebrew and Aramaic words are the commentator’s citations of the sacred text; the English translation that follows each is the translator’s.
