עִנּ֣וּ בַכֶּ֣בֶל רגליו [רַגְל֑וֹ] בַּ֝רְזֶ֗ל בָּ֣אָה נַפְשֽׁוֹ׃
Gli facevano male i piedi con le catene, la sua persona era posata in ferro;
Rashi on Psalms
his soul was placed in irons Said Rav Huna the son of Idi: She [Potiphar’s wife] made him a “shirtua” under his beard, so that if he bent his face over, the “shirtua” would wound him. שרתוע means a forked, suspended spear.
