(Isa 16:3 TS2009) “Bring counsel, execute judgment; make your shadow like the night in the middle of the day; hide the outcasts, do not betray him who escapes.
IIsa 16:3 LOGOS take farther counsel, and continually make a shelter from grief; they flee in darkness at midday; they are amazed; do not be led captive.

1380) Lp% (Lp% PL) ac: Plead co: ? ab: Judgment: The pictograph p is a picture of mouth, the l is a picture of a shepherd staff representing authority. Combined these mean "speak to authority". A coming to one in authority to intercede on ones own behalf or for another
Palal for pray or intercede, is spelled here as paliyl, making it what early Hebrew grammarians called a verbal noun. Thus the action of intercession, brings about a thing, called a judgment. However, the Jewish translators of the LXX, saw something else. They saw a shelter, which would protect one from grief.
Yet, this cannot be explained away by the picture associated with palal. But rather, from a deeper understanding of the root cause of grief, which is sin:
Chata: does mean sin, but it also has the meaning of purge, as David wrote:
Psa 51:7 KJV Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
The word purge is chata, 2398 Strongs. To understand how chata can mean sin, and purge from sin, one must look deep into the picture associated with its letters:
Chet= a covering
Tet = something surrounding, enclosing, protecting
aleph= is a hand reaching up to Yah, and Yah reaching a hand down to mankind
When purged, mankind is able to abide under the protection of the Almighty, but once one walks outside that protection, they are walking in sin.
This is the perfect picture of walking in the Spirit!
May we escape from all the pain and suffering which comes as a result of sin, and not be held captive to sin, but rather, abide under the shelter of the blood of Yeshua.
It is entirely possible, that someone did not know that they needed to plead and pray with intercession for their shelter from sin, and that they would not grow weary abiding within the confines of its protection.
