you frisk, you are skittish (second person plural verb)
A disputed verb form appearing in Jeremiah 50:11, where the prophet taunts Babylon's destroyers of Israel. The context involves celebratory frisking or skipping—possibly of cattle or young animals frolicking in gladness over Israel's plundering. The verb is rare and its exact meaning uncertain, but it conveys exuberant, perhaps irreverent, celebration. Some versions interpret it as 'you have grown fat' rather than 'you frisk,' but the imagery involves victors celebrating their conquest with animal-like abandon.
Senses
1. sense 1 — A verb describing frisking, skipping, or exuberant movement, used in Jeremiah 50:11 to taunt Babylon. The prophet addresses those who plundered Israel: 'you frisk' or act skittishly in celebration of conquest. The image may be of young cattle or calves gamboling playfully, expressing the victors' carefree joy. Spanish 'engordasteis' (you grew fat) reflects an alternate interpretation, but the context suggests celebratory movement rather than mere fattening. 1×
