מָגֵ֨ן גִּבֹּרֵ֜יהוּ מְאָדָּ֗ם אַנְשֵׁי־חַ֙יִל֙ מְתֻלָּעִ֔ים בְּאֵשׁ־פְּלָד֥וֹת הָרֶ֖כֶב בְּי֣וֹם הֲכִינ֑וֹ וְהַבְּרֹשִׁ֖ים הָרְעָֽלוּ׃
Perisai para pahlawannya merah, para prajurit gagah berpakaian kirmizi; kereta-kereta perang berkilat laksana api baja pada hari ia mempersiapkannya, dan para perwira berselubung pakaian berwarna-warni.
Rashi
The shields of his mighty men—The mighty of Nebuchadnezzar, who lay siege to Assyria.
Rashi
are dyed red—They are dyed red, and the men of their army are in crimson, dressed in crimson.
Rashi
the chariots are in the fire of torches on the day of his preparation Heb. פְּלָדֹת. On the day that he [Nebuchadnezzar] is prepared to go out in the army, he polishes his iron chariots, but I do not know what פְּלָדֹת means. I say that it is a material that polishes iron well. And some interpret פְּלָדֹת as an expression of a fiery torch (לַפִּיד), by transposing the letters.
Rashi
and the cypresses are enwrapped—Jonathan renders: And the heads of the [Babylonian] camps are enwrapped in colored garments.
Rashi
are enwrapped Heb. הַרְעָלוּ, enwrapped. Similar is (Isa. 3:19) “The necklaces and the bracelets and the shawls (הָרְעָלוֹת).” In the language of the Mishnah we learned “shawled (רְעוּלוֹת) Arabian women” in tractate Shabbath (65a).
