For, the islands wait for me, and the ships of the sea in the beginning: that I may bring thy sons from afar: their silver, and their gold with them, to the name of the Lord thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he hath glorified thee.
Ibn Ezra
Shall wait for me, that I shall give them a good reward. Tarshish. This place is mentioned because it is near Palestine. Their silver and their gold with them. These words contain the reason why the islands shall wait for the Lord; the Israelites will not give them wages. It is distinctly said unto the name of the Lord thy God. פארך He hath glorified thee. The Kamez under ר instead of Zeré, is caused by the pause.
