## In Jewish tradition

It means to make restless and troubled. God is said to bring unrest to Babylon's people.

**Interpretation.** Jeremiah says God will give rest to the earth while troubling Babylon, which the tradition reads as God defending Israel's cause against its oppressor.

### Examples

- Their Redeemer is strong, the LORD of hosts is His name; He will thoroughly plead their cause, that He may give rest to the earth, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon. (Prophets JER.50.34, JPS 1917) [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/judaism/D/disquiet/#x1)
