was not Israel a derision unto thee?] Didst not thou deride him in his miserie, and rejoyce at his fall? Job 31:29. and is it not just then, that the like now befall thee? Judg. 1. 7. Pro. 24. 17, 18. was he found among theeves] Or, as one found. as Psalms 11:1. Isaiah 21:8. Or, not as one found among theeves. the negative is wanting, but may be supplied, from the fore-going member; as Psalms 9:18. Isaiah 28:28. Didst thou not insult over him, shout at him, and make a laughing stock of him, as if he had beene a thief taken in the manner? Chap. 2. 26. for since thou spakest of him] Or, that when. as Chap. 42. 20. thou skippedst for joy] Or, movedst thy self. that is, thou shookest thy head at him, in way of derision and insultation, Psalms 22:7. Lamentations 1:8.
