NETBible

ס (Samek) All who passed by on the road clapped their hands to mock you.¹ They sneered and shook their heads at Daughter Jerusalem. “Ha! Is this the city they called² ‘The perfection of beauty,³ the source of joy of the whole earth!’?”⁴

NET Notes

¹tn Heb “clap their hands at you.” Clapping hands at someone was an expression of malicious glee, derision and mockery (Num 24:10; Job 27:23; Lam 2:15).

²tn Heb “of which they said.”

³tn Heb “perfection of beauty.” The noun יֹפִי (yofi, “beauty”) functions as a genitive of respect in relation to the preceding construct noun: Jerusalem was perfect in respect to its physical beauty.

⁴tn Heb “the joy of all the earth.” This is similar to statements found in Pss 48:2 and 50:2.
