This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
take thine inheritance in thyself - Formerly thou wast Mine inheritance; but now, full of guilt, thou art no longer Mine, but thine own inheritance to thyself; “in the sight of the heathen,” that is, even they shall see that, now that thou hast become a captive, thou art no longer owned as Mine [Vatablus]. Fairbairn and others needlessly take the Hebrew from a different root, “thou shalt be polluted by (‘in,’ [Henderson]) thyself,” etc.; the heathen shall regard thee as a polluted thing, who hast brought thine own reproach on thyself.
