This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
I will smite thy bow; make thy hand weak, not able to hold the bow, and thy heart faint, not daring to take it up again. What is said of the bow rendered useless, is to be understood of all other weapons of war. This one kind, the bow, being most in use with these Scythians, is mentioned for all the rest.
Thy left hand; the hand for holding the bow, while the right fits the arrow to the string, and draws to shoot.
Thine arrows to fall; thou shalt throw away thine arrows, that thou mayst the better flee for escape.
