Isaiah 66:9 Douay-Rheims

Shall not I that make others to bring forth children, myself bring forth, saith the Lord? shall I, that give generation to others, be barren, saith the Lord thy God?

Ibn Ezra

1089–1167 Jewish

האני אשביר Shall I bring to birth. Comp. משבר בנים "birth of children" (Hos. 13:13). Shall I bring to birth etc. I have the power to do all this, to bring the woman, as it were, near the birth, and should I not be able to bring force? or should I could cause the whole world to bring forth a children, shut the womb of Zion?

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