Isaiah 3:13

The Holy Bible, Berean Study Bible

Contextual Overview

⁹The expression on their faces testifies against them, and like Sodom they flaunt their sin; they do not conceal it; woe to them, for they have brought disaster upon themselves. ¹⁰Tell the righteous it will be well for them, for they will enjoy the fruit of their labor. ¹¹Woe to the wicked; disaster is upon them! For they will be repaid with what their hands have done. ¹²Youths oppress My people, and women rule over them. O My people, your guides mislead you; they turn you from your paths. ¹³The LORD arises to contend; He stands to judge the people.¹⁴The LORD brings this charge against the elders and leaders of His people: "You have devoured the vineyard; the plunder of the poor is in your houses. ¹⁵Why do you crush My people and grind the faces of the poor?" declares the Lord GOD of Hosts.

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.
