Isaiah 22:18 Douay-Rheims

He will crown thee with a crown of tribulation, he will toss thee like a ball into a large and spacious country: there shalt thou die, and there shall the chariot of thy glory be, the shame of the house of thy Lord.

Rashi

1040–1105 Jewish

He shall wind you around like a turban that surrounds the head, the enemies and oppressors shall surround you. like a surrounding wall. (כַּדּוּר). Our Rabbis, however, explained it as an expression of a ball, which they call ‘pelote’ in French, which is tossed and caught from hand to hand. to a land of ample space in Casiphia, the name of a place. there you shall die And you shall not be buried in the sepulchre of the House of David, and there the chariots of your glory shall be converted into the shame of the house of your master which you sought.
