tnHeb “arousing.” The form is probably a Polel infinitive absolute, rather than a third masculine singular perfect, for Sheol is grammatically feminine (note “stirred up”). See GKC466§145.t.
18
tnHeb “all the rams of the earth.” The animal epithet is used metaphorically here for leaders. See HALOT903s.v. *עַתּוּד.
19
tnHeb “lifting from their thrones all the kings of the nations.” הֵקִים (heqim, a Hiphil perfect third masculine singular) should be emended to an infinitive absolute (הָקֵים, haqem). See the note on “rouses” earlier in the verse.
