Isaiah 29:9 Douay-Rheims

Be astonished, and wander, waver, and stagger: be drunk, and not with wine: stagger, and not with drunkenness.

Ibn Ezra

1089–1167 Jewish

Stay yourselves. The prophet addresses the men of Zion who will be curious to know how this will happen, and what the meaning of this prophecy is.—The prophet speaks in the same manner as people use to speak one to another; and why do they still not understand him? because they are drunken, but not with wine.

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