Isaia 32:9 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 32:9

Rise up, ye women that are at ease
On beds of down, unconcerned about the present or future state of the nation; who had their share of guilt in the nation's sins, particularly pride, luxury, superstition, rejection of the Messiah, and contempt of his Gospel, and so should have their part in its punishment. Some think that the men of the nation are so called, because of their effeminacy. The Jews interpret them of the other cities of Judea, besides Jerusalem; the Targum explains it by provinces:

hear my voice, ye careless daughters; give ear to my speech;
the words of the prophet concerning the future desolation of their country; here it is thought the lesser towns and villages are intended by daughters, who dwelt in confidence and security, having no thought and notion of destruction coming upon them; so Ben Melech interprets the "women" of cities, and the "daughters" of villages.

Isaia 32:9 In-Context

7 E gli strumenti dell’avaro sono malvagi, ed egli prende scellerati consigli, per distruggere i poveri, con parole di falsità, eziandio quando il bisognoso parla dirittamente.
8 Ma il principe prende consigli da principe, e si leva per far cose degne di principe.
9 Donne agiate, levatevi, udite la mia voce; fanciulle, che vivete sicure, porgete gli orecchi al mio ragionamento.
10 Un anno dopo l’altro voi sarete in gran turbamento, o voi, che vivete sicure; perciocchè sarà mancata la vendemmia, la ricolta non verrà più.
11 O donne agiate, abbiate spavento; tremate, voi che vivete sicure; spogliatevi ignude, e cingetevi di sacchi sopra i lombi;
