What is the meaning of "Im Lo ha'Sechok"?

1.

Radak: This is a question 1 - did you not laugh at Yisrael? So you will be a mockery!

2.

Malbim: You laughed at Yisrael, that some of them returned stealthily to their land after their exile, and you depicted them like a thief who tunnels into houses at night.

Presumably, the text of Radak should be 'b'Derech She'elah', like Abarvenel says; 'Hash'alah' is a printing mistake. (PF)

Why does it say "Im b'Ganavim Nimtza"?

1.

Radak: Was Yisrael found among thieves, that you mock them like one mocks and exults over a thief [who is caught], like it says "Yari'u Aleimo ka'Ganav" (Iyov 30:5)?

3)

What is the meaning of "Midei Devarecha Bo Tisnodad"?

1.

Rashi #1: [Amidst discussing Yisrael,] you shook your head and mocked our Churban.

2.

Rashi #2: Because you laughed over Yisrael's Churban, you will be exiled. Also Targum Yonasan says [similarly] because you spoke many words about [Yisrael], you will be dislocated.

3.

Radak: Whenever you spoke about Yisrael's exile, you laughed, like one who delights in a matter and laughs and dances.

4.

Malbim: Like you said that Yisrael returned stealthily to their land like a thief entering others' houses, so you will do!
