Verse 12
In conclusion, Isaiah asked the Lord if He would restrain Himself from acting in view of all these conditions. One could paraphrase here: "Lord, how can You not do something after all that has happened?" Would He remain silent to His people’s prayers and allow their affliction to continue beyond what they could endure? Would He show no compassion?
The next two chapters give the Lord’s response to this impassioned prayer of intercession for hopeless Israel.
