Exegesis
Two consecutive Hifil imperatives, hāsîr {הָסִיר | hāsîr} ‘remove’ and wəhārēm {וְהָרֵים | wəhārēm} ‘and lift up’, govern the symbolic objects—the turban and the crown—indicating removal of priestly and royal status.
In context — Ezekiel 21:26
Thus says the Lord GOD : Remove the turban and take off the crown. This shall not be as it once was. Exalt the lowly, and humble the exalted.
