trampling down, subjugation by force
This noun describes violent trampling down or subjugation. Isaiah uses it twice to characterize a distant nation as one 'of might and of trampling' (18:2, 7), possibly referring to their military aggression. The third occurrence (22:5) appears in a day of judgment described as 'a day of tumult and trampling and confusion.' The term vividly captures the image of being crushed underfoot, whether by invading armies or divine judgment.
