Exegesis
The Hitpael verb hitragezkha {הִתְרַגֶּזְךָ | hiṯraggēẕ-kha} ‘you raged’ with reflexive intensity underscores hostility toward elai {אֵלַי | ʾêlây} ‘me.’
In context — 2 Kings 19:28
Because you have raged against Me and your arrogance has come up into My ears , I will put My hook in your nose and My bit in your lips, and I will cause you to return by the way that you came.
