Isaiah 52:2
Douay-Rheims
Shake thyself from the dust, arise, sit up, O Jerusalem: loose the bonds from off thy neck, O captive daughter of Sion.
Ibn Ezra
Shake thyself from the dust. It is a figurative expression. The prophet therefore continues, Arise, sit down; for Jerusalem is compared to one that has been lying down in dust. Loose thyself, etc. Thou wilt be no more under the dominion of another nation.
