Commentaire sur Isaïe 16:12
וְהָיָ֧ה כִֽי־נִרְאָ֛ה כִּֽי־נִלְאָ֥ה מוֹאָ֖ב עַל־הַבָּמָ֑ה וּבָ֧א אֶל־מִקְדָּשׁ֛וֹ לְהִתְפַּלֵּ֖ל וְלֹ֥א יוּכָֽל׃
Et dût Moab visiter ses hauts-lieux, ce sera peine perdue; et dût-il entrer dans son sanctuaire pour prier, il n’y gagnera rien.
Rashi on Isaiah
that Moab has wearied on the high place to wage war on the high places of the towers.

Ibn Ezra on Isaiah
Moab is weary, etc. He is tired of going up to the high place for the worship of idols; or it is to be taken in the same sense as ולא יוכל And he shall not prevail. The second explanation is preferable.25According to the first explanation, the Moabites visit the high place so often, that they are tired of it; they see that it is without any use for them. According to the second, they wish to worship on the high places, but they are weary before reaching them, because of the continual trouble and anxiety caused by the enemy.
