17 Then shall the lambs feed after their manner, and the waste places of the fat ones shall strangers eat.

The Waste Places of the Fat Ones Shall Strangers Eat

Some commentaries suggest this verse should be placed next to verse 10. It is probably a reference to the desolate condition of the lands once inhabited by the wealthy. Rather than producing bountiful crops, their lands will provide forage for lambs and young goats or stranger. (The word “strangers” appears as “aliens” in early Hebrew texts while the Greek Septuagint uses “young goats.”)

Hoyt W. Brewster, Jr., Isaiah Plain and Simple [salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co., 1995], 48
