Isaías 3:5

5 O povo oprimirá a si mesmo:homem contra homem, cada um contra o seu próximo.O jovem se levantará contra o idoso,o desprezível contra o nobre.

Isaías 3:5 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 3:5

And the people shall be oppressed, everyone by another,
and everyone by his neighbour
There being no governors, or such as were unfit for government, no decorum was kept and observed, but a mere anarchy; and so everyone did as he pleased, as when there was no king in Israel; and everyone rushed into the house of his neighbour, and plundered his goods; this was the case of Jerusalem, at the time of the siege, it abounding with robbers and spoilers: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient;
show no respect to them, nor honour them, as the law requires in ( Leviticus 19:32 ) but behave insolently towards them; and so the Jews say ^F4, that when the son of David is come, as he now would be, young men shall make ashamed the faces of old men, and old men shall stand before young men: and the base against the honourable;
persons of a mean birth and extract would rise up against and insult such as were men of families and fortune, of noble birth and of high degree.

Isaías 3:5 In-Context

3 o capitão e o nobre,o conselheiro, o conhecedor de magia e o perito em maldições.

4 Porei jovens no governo;irresponsáveis dominarão.

5 O povo oprimirá a si mesmo:homem contra homem, cada um contra o seu próximo.O jovem se levantará contra o idoso,o desprezível contra o nobre.

6 Um homem agarrará seu irmão,um da família de seu pai, e lhe dirá:“Você pelo menos tem um manto; seja o nosso governante;assuma o poder sobre este monte de ruínas!”

7 Mas naquele dia ele exclamará:“Não tenho remédios,não há comida nem roupa em minha casa;não me nomeiem governante do povo”.
