This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Seeing and hearing: their wickedness was so open and shameless, that he not only heard the report of it, but saw them commit it, Isa_3:9.
Vexed; Greek, tormented, i.e. extremely afflicted and troubled his own soul, provoking himself to godly sorrow at the sight and fame of their unlawful deeds. His grief was voluntary, and he active in it; the like is said of Christ, on occasion of Lazarus’s death, Joh_11:33, where the margin reads, he troubled himself.
