Behold, these that go toward the north country ; meaning the Medes and Persians, which went towards Babylon:
have quieted my spirit in the north country ; by executing the judgments of God upon the Chaldeans, and by helping, favouring, and delivering the people of the Jews; which were very agreeable to the will of God, and well pleasing in his sight, signified by the quieting or refreshing his Spirit.
