Porque os alegráis, porque os regocijáis, saqueadores de mi heredad, porque saltáis como novilla trilladora y relincháis como caballos sementales,
Porque os alegrasteis, porque os gozasteis destruyendo mi heredad, porque os llenasteis como becerra sobre la hierba, y mugs como toros.
Porque os alegrasteis, porque os gozasteis destruyendo mi heredad, porque os llenasteis como becerra de renuevos, y relinchasteis como caballos;

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Because ye were glad, because ye rejoiced, O ye destroyers of mine heritage,.... This is addressed to the Chaldeans who destroyed Jerusalem and the land of Judea, once the heritage of the Lord; when they rejoiced at the destruction of God's people, and insulted them in their miseries; and which is the cause and reason assigned of their ruin; for though they had a commission to destroy, yet they exceeded that, and especially by exulting at the ruin of that people, which showed great inhumanity. So the Papists will rejoice at the slaying of the witnesses, but will be repaid in their own coin, Revelation 11:10;
because ye are grown fat as the heifer at grass: which feeds all the day, and so grows fat. Some copies read, "as the heifer that treads out" k the corn; which, according to the law, was not to be muzzled, and so was continually feeding, and grew plump and sleek; and so these Chaldeans, having enriched themselves with the spoils of Judea and other nations, gave themselves up to ease and luxury; and it was at one of their festivals their city was taken, to which there may be some allusion:
and bellow as bulls: or, "neigh as horses" l; having got the victory, of which war horses are sensible; or it may denote their impetuous lust after women, whom they forced and ravished, when taken captives by them.
k כעגלה דשה "sicut vitula exterens", Tigurine version; "triturans", Cocceius, De Dieu. l תצהלי כאבירים "hinnistis sicut fortes (equi)", Munster, Vatablus, Piscator, Schmidt; "ut caballi", Cocceius.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Or, “Chaldaea shall become a spoil ... for thou wast glad, thou exultedst, ye plunderers of mine heritage.”
Because ye are grown fat - Rather, for thou leapedst, skippedst as an animal does when playing.
As the heifer at grass - Or, as a heifer threshing. When threshing cattle were allowed to eat their fill Deuteronomy 25:4, and so grew playful.
Bellow as bulls - Better as in the margin.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 50:11. As the heifer at grass — Ye were wanton in the desolations ye brought upon Judea.
