Isaiah 3:7
Douay-Rheims
In that day he shall answer, saying: I am no healer, and in my house there is no bread, nor clothing: make me not ruler of the people.
Ibn Ezra
יִשא He will swear (comp. לא תשא את שם יי thou shalt not swear by the name of the Lord, Exod. 20:7). חובש Ruler. It is the same verb as in הובש מכה ‘ dressing a wound ;’ comp. עֶצֶר power (Judg. 18:7). There is no clothing. Even for myself.
Hebrew and Aramaic words are the commentator’s citations of the sacred text; the English translation that follows each is the translator’s.
