Isaiah17:12
12. Woe ... multitude--rather, "Ho (Hark)! a noise of," &c. The prophet in vision perceives the vast and mixed Assyrian hosts (Hebrew, "many peoples," see on Is 5:26): on the hills of Judah (so "mountains," Is 17:13): but at the "rebuke" of God, they shall "flee as chaff."
to the rushing ... that make--rather, "the roaring ... roareth" (compare Is 8:7; Jr 6:23).
