Thou hast been mad against me, and thy pride hath come up to my ears: therefore I will put a ring in thy nose, and a bit between thy lips, and I will turn thee back by the way, by which thou camest.
Rashi
And your tumult. [Means] the same as ושאונך [=your tumult].
My ring. A kind of ring by which they pull an animal whose behavior is bad, as we learned, ”And all animals that are usually pulled with a ring may go out [on Shabbos] with a ring.”
And my bit. [Targum] Yonoson rendered זמם, which is made of iron, and which is inserted into the nostrils of a female camel, and she is pulled with it, because her behavior is bad. This is what we learned, ”And the female camel [may go out on Shabbos] with a nose ring.”
