Isaiah 3:15 Douay-Rheims

Why do you consume my people, and grind the faces of the poor? saith the Lord the God of hosts.

Ibn Ezra

1089–1167 Jewish

מלכם What mean you ? Dagesh in ל compensates for the omitted מה לכם = מלכם .ה is compounded, of two words, like (מה זה =)מזה What is that (Exod. 4:3). Ye grind. Metaphorically said, for you put to shame and contempt.

Hebrew and Aramaic words are the commentator’s citations of the sacred text; the English translation that follows each is the translator’s.
