וַתִּמְצָ֨א כַקֵּ֤ן ׀ יָדִי֙ לְחֵ֣יל הָֽעַמִּ֔ים וְכֶאֱסֹף֙ בֵּיצִ֣ים עֲזֻב֔וֹת כָּל־הָאָ֖רֶץ אֲנִ֣י אָסָ֑פְתִּי וְלֹ֤א הָיָה֙ נֹדֵ֣ד כָּנָ֔ף וּפֹצֶ֥ה פֶ֖ה וּמְצַפְצֵֽף׃
At natagpuan ng aking kamay ang kayamanan ng mga bayan na parang isang pugad; at kung paanong tinitipon ang mga itlog na iniwan, ay tinipon ko ang buong lupa; at walang nagpagaspas ng pakpak, o bumuka ng bibig, o humuni.”
Ibn Ezra
לחיל The riches. Comp. החיל the wealth (Deut. 8:17).
Rashi
and as one gathers abandoned eggs And as one gathers abandoned eggs which their mother abandoned, and no one protests against him by covering them.
Rashi
and no one moved a wing, or opened his mouth or chirped This entire expression is apropos to birds; since he compared those exiles to a bird’s nest and to abandoned eggs, he used this expression, saying that neither the father nor the mother chirped about them.
