THE MESSAGE
God enters the courtroom. He takes his place at the bench to judge his people. God calls for order in the court, hauls the leaders of his people into the dock: "You've played havoc with this country. Your houses are stuffed with what you've stolen from the poor. What is this anyway? Stomping on my people, grinding the faces of the poor into the dirt?" That's what the Master, God -of-the-Angel-Armies, says.

Contextual Overview
9 The look on your faces shows that you are sinful as Sodom, and you don't try to hide it. You are in for trouble, and you have brought it all on yourselves. 10 Tell those who obey God, "You're very fortunate— you will be rewarded for what you have done." 11 Tell those who disobey, "You're in big trouble— what you did to others will come back to you." 12 Though you are God's people, you are ruled and abused by women and children. You are confused by leaders who guide you down the wrong path. 13 The Lord is ready to accuse and judge all nations. 14 He will even judge you rulers and leaders of his own nation. You destroyed his vineyard and filled your houses by robbing the poor. 15 The Lord All-Powerful says, "You have crushed my people and rubbed in the dirt the faces of the poor."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
The Lord standeth up to plead,.... His own cause, or the cause of his son against the Jews that rejected him, and the Scribes and Pharisees that led them to an ill opinion of him:
and standeth to judge the people. Both expressions show indignation and resentment; he rises up out of his place, and stands up in defence of his cause, and avenges himself on a wicked and ungrateful people: it seems to have reference to the judgments of God on the people of the Jews, the tribes of Israel.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The Lord standeth up - To “stand up” may mean the same as to “arise.” God would not sit in silence and see their wicked conduct; but he would come forth to inflict on them exemplary and deserved chastisement.
To plead - To “litigate,” to contend with, that is, to condemn, to inflict punishment.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Isaiah 3:13. The people - "His people"] עמו ammo, Septuagint.
