(19) Thou sayest.Slightly altered from 2Ki. 14:10. Thou sayest, or thou thinkest, is added here. The word in Hebrew meaning Lo (hinnh) is perhaps a corruption of the word meaning smiting (hakkh) :Thou hast indeed smitten.
To boast.To get glory (hakbd). Only so used here. Kings, thine heart lifteth thee up. Be honoured (i.e., enjoy thine honours), and abide at home (hikk-bd). The difference is one of points only, and may be due to a copyist.
