**עָלֶיךָ בְּרִית יִכְרֹתוּ.** בְּרִית זוֹ אֵינָהּ אֶלָּא עָלֶיךָ, לְהַשְׁכִּיחַ אֶת שִׁמְךָ, שֶׁאֵין אַתָּה קָרוּי **אֱלֹהִים** אֶלָּא לָנוּ אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל, וּמֵאַחַר שֶׁ**לֹּא יִזָּכֵר שֵׁם יִשְׂרָאֵל** אַף שִׁמְךָ הַגָּדוֹל אֵינוֹ נִזְכָּר. כָּךְ מָצָאתִי:

**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**
**against You they form a pact** This pact is only against You, to cause Your name to be forgotten, for You are called the God of Israel, and since Israel will not be remembered, even Your great name is not remembered. I found this.

**גַּם אַשּׁוּר.** אַף אַשּׁוּר שֶׁהָיָה נִזְהָר עַד הַיּוֹם מִשְּׁאָר עֵצָה סְכָלָה וְלֹא יִתְחַבֵּר עִם מְרֵעִים, כְּמָה דְאַתְּ אָמַר (בראשית י:יא) ״מִן הָאָרֶץ הַהִיא יָצָא אַשּׁוּר״, שֶׁיָּצָא מֵעֲצַת דּוֹר הַפְּלַגָּה, כָּאן **נִלְוָה עִמָּם** וַעֲזָרָם לְרָעָה (בפרושים אחרים מצאתי כן). **גַּם אַשּׁוּר נִלְוָה עִמָּם וְגוֹ׳.** גַּם זֶה שֶׁהָיָה מְחַבֵּב מִתְּחִלָּתוֹ מַעֲשִׂים טוֹבִים שֶׁפֵּרַשׁ מֵעֲצַת נִמְרוֹד שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר מִן הָאָרֶץ הַהִיא יָצָא אַשּׁוּר, אַף הוּא חָזַר לִהְיוֹת רָשָׁע. לְכָךְ נִשְׁתַּתֵּף לְהַחֲרִיב בֵּיתְךָ (בראשית רבה לז:ד):

**Also Assyria** Even Assyria, which until that day was careful of other foolish counsels and would not join evildoers, as it says (Gen. 10:11): “From that land Asshur went forth,” that he left the counsel of the generation of dispersion [which built the tower], joined them here and assisted them for evil. (In other commentaries I found this:) **Also Assyria joined them, etc.** Also this one, who initially loved good deeds—for he separated from Nimrod’s counsel, as it is said: “From that land Asshur went forth”—he too reverted to wickedness. Therefore, he participated in destroying Your temple. Genesis Rabbah 37:4.

**שִׁיתֵמוֹ כַגַּלְגַּל.** וּ**כְקַשׁ** הַנִּדָּפִים מִפְּנֵי **רוּחַ**, וּמַהוּ גַּלְגַּל? הוּא רָאשֵׁי קוֹצֵי הַשָּׂדֶה הַקְּרוּיִים קרדנ״ש בְּלַעַ״ז, וּכְשֶׁמַּגִּיעִין יְמֵי הַחֹרֶף נִתָּקִים וְנִשְׁחָתִים מֵאֲלֵיהֶם וּפוֹרְחִין מְעַט מְעַט, וְדוֹמֶה אוֹתוֹ הַנִּתָּק מֵהֶם כְּמִין גַּלְגַּלֵּי אוֹפַן עֲגָלָה, וְהָרוּחַ מוֹלִיכָתָן:

**My God, make them like thistles, like stubble** which are driven away by the wind. Now what is גלגל? It is the tips of the thorns of the field, which are called chardons in French, thistles. When winter arrives, they are plucked out and disintegrate, and little by little they fly [away]. The part that is plucked out of them resembles the wheels of a wagon, and the wind carries them.
