Isaías 13:16 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 13:16

Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their
eyes
Upon the ground, or against the wall, as was foretold should be, ( Psalms 137:8 Psalms 137:9 ) and in way of retaliation for what they did to the Jews, ( 2 Chronicles 36:17 ) and this was to be done "before their eyes", in the sight of the inhabitants, which must make it the more distressing and afflicting; and, as Kimchi observes, this phrase is to be applied to the following clauses: their houses shall be spoiled;
plundered of the substance, wealth, and riches in them, by the Persian soldiers: and their wives ravished;
by the same, and both before their eyes, and after that slain, in like manner as they had ravished the women in Zion, ( Lamentations 5:11 ) .

Isaías 13:16 In-Context

14 Como gacela acosada,como rebaño sin pastor,cada uno se volverá a su propio pueblo,cada cual huirá a su propia tierra.

15 Al que atrapen lo traspasarán;el que caiga preso morirá a filo de espada.

16 Ante sus propios ojos estrellarán a sus pequeños,saquearán sus casas y violarán a sus mujeres.

17 ¡Miren! Yo incito contra ellos a los medos,pueblo al que no le importa la platani se deleita en el oro.

18 Con sus arcos traspasarán a los jóvenes;no se apiadarán del fruto del vientreni tendrán compasión de los niños.
