‘Cuando te tomaron en la mano, te quebraste, y desgarraste todas sus manos; y cuando se apoyaron en ti, te quebraste y les hiciste estremecer todos sus lomos.'
Cuando te tomaron con la mano, te quebraste, y les rompiste todo el hombro: y cuando se recostaron sobre ti, te quebraste, y los deslomaste enteramente.
Cuando te tomaron con la mano, te quebraste, y les rompiste todo el hombro; y cuando se recostaron sobre ti, te quebraste, y los deslomaste enteramente.

and when they leaned upon thee thou brakest, and madest all their loins to be at a stand; when they put their confidence in the king of Egypt, and sent to him for help when besieged by the king of Babylon, and he failed them, they were obliged to raise up themselves, as a man is forced to do when his staff breaks under him, whose loins before were bowed, but now erects himself, and stands and walks as well as he can without it; so the Jews were forced to stand upon their own legs, and exert all the force they had, and make all the efforts they could against the king of Babylon, being left in the lurch by the king of Egypt; in which, though they were rightly served for their vain confidence and not trusting in the Lord, yet the treachery of the Egyptians was resented by him, as follows:
