Isaiah 10:14

John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible · John Gill (1697–1771) · Public Domain

And my hand hath found as a nest the riches of the people,.... With that ease as a man finds a nest of birds, and takes them:and as one gathereth eggs [that are] left; by the bird, who not sitting upon them, there is none to protect them; whereas, when they are sat upon by the bird, she will flutter with her wings, and strike with her bill, and preserve them as well as she can:have I gathered all the earth; the kingdoms and inhabitants of it, there being none to resist, or that dared to do it, as follows:and there was none that moved the wing; as a bird will do, when its young or eggs are taken away from it:or opened the mouth, or peeped; chattered, clucked, or expressed any grief, uneasiness, or resentment; the Targum is,"that opened his mouth, and spoke a word.'
