The Hebrew word ekes signifies “fetter” or “ankle band.” It is translated “tinkling ornaments” for the feet in
Isaiah 3:18,
18
In that day the Lord will take away the bravery of their tinkling ornaments about their feet, and their cauls, and their round tires like the moon, (Isaiah 3:18)
as part of the dress of the haughty daughters of Zion, who liked to make a tinkling noise when they walked; but God would bring to naught all such adornings. The same Hebrew word is translated “stocks” in
Proverbs 7:22
22
He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks; (Proverbs 7:22)
