Context of Isaiah 32:10
8But good people think of ways that they can be kind to others. They do the good things that they have decided to do. 9You women, listen carefully to what I say to you! You think that you have no problems. You feel very safe. But listen to me! Now, you think that you are safe, but in one year's time, you will shake with fear. There will be no grapes at harvest time. You will pick no fruit from your trees. 11You think that you have no problems, but you should be afraid. Yes, shake with fear! Take off all your beautiful clothes. Tie rough cloth round your legs instead. 12Weep and hit your breasts, because your good fields have no crops, and your vines have no grapes.

- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 9-20Verses 9-20 When there was so much provocation given to the holy God, bad times might be expected.

- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 9-209-20. Address to the women of Jerusalem who troubled themselves little about the political signs of the times, but lived a life of self-indulgence (Is 3:16-23); the failure of food through the devastations of the enemy is here foretold, being what was most likely to affect them as mothers of families, heretofore accustomed to every luxury. Vitringa understands "women--daughters" as the cities and villages of Judea (Eze 16:1-63). See Am 6:1.Read the comment
