Isaiah 22:4 Douay-Rheims

Therefore have I said: Depart from me, I will weep bitterly: labour not to comfort me, for the devastation of the daughter of my people.

Ibn Ezra

1089–1167 Jewish

Therefore said I. The first person refers to the prophet. שעו ממני Look away from me. Root שעה to let loose, to turn away; comp. תשעה Thou wilt depart (Job 7:19). אמרר בבכי I will embitter by weeping. I will embitter those that listen.
