The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Consolamini eum, omnes qui estis in circuitu ejus : et universi qui scitis nomen ejus, dicite : Quomodo confracta est virga fortis, baculus gloriosus ?
Septuagint (Swete) shown from Jeremias 31:17
κινήσατε αὐτῷ πάντες κυκλόθεν αὐτοῦ, πάντες ἔκδοτε ὄνομα αὐτοῦ· εἴπατε Πῶς συνετρίβη βακτηρία εὐκλεής, ῥάβδος μεγαλώματος;
Hebrew (WLC)
נֻ֤דוּ לוֹ֙ כָּל סְבִיבָ֔יו וְכֹ֖ל יֹדְעֵ֣י שְׁמ֑וֹ אִמְר֗וּ אֵיכָ֤ה נִשְׁבַּר֙ מַטֵּה עֹ֔ז מַקֵּ֖ל תִּפְאָרָֽה

Haydock's commentary

His name, as particular friends, Exodus xxxiii. 12, 17. People in the East had a secret name, which they disclosed to very few, to prevent incantations.

Rod. This nation was exceedingly vain, ver. 29.
