15 ¿Qué pensáis vosotros que majáis a mi pueblo, y moléis las caras de los pobres? Dice el Señor DIOS de los ejércitos

Isaías 3:15 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 3:15

What mean ye, [that] ye beat my people to pieces
Reduce them to the utmost poverty; so the Targum,

``wherefore do ye impoverish my people?''
as they did by exacting tithes of all that they possessed; by requiring large sums for their long prayers; and by various traditions they enjoined them to observe: and grind the faces of the poor?
either by smiting them on the cheek, as Christ, who became poor for our sakes, was smitten by them; or by bringing them into such low circumstances, by their exorbitant demands, that they had not sufficiency of food to eat; by which means their faces became pale, thin, and meagre: saith the Lord God of Hosts:
who saw all their actions, and was able to plead his people's cause, and take vengeance on their oppressors.

Isaías 3:15 In-Context

13 El SEÑOR está en pie para litigar, y está para juzgar a los pueblos
14 El SEÑOR vendrá a juicio contra los ancianos de su pueblo, y contra sus príncipes; porque vosotros habéis devorado la viña, y el despojo del pobre está en vuestras casas
15 ¿Qué pensáis vosotros que majáis a mi pueblo, y moléis las caras de los pobres? Dice el Señor DIOS de los ejércitos
16 Asimismo dice el SEÑOR: Por cuanto las hijas de Sion se ensoberbecen, y andan con cuello erguido y los ojos descompuestos; y cuando andan, van como danzando, y haciendo son con los pies
17 por tanto, pelará el Señor la mollera de las hijas de Sion, y el SEÑOR descubrirá sus vergüenzas
