וַיֹּ֕אמֶר שִׁמְעוּ־נָ֖א בֵּ֣ית דָּוִ֑ד הַמְעַ֤ט מִכֶּם֙ הַלְא֣וֹת אֲנָשִׁ֔ים כִּ֥י תַלְא֖וּ גַּ֥ם אֶת־אֱלֹהָֽי׃

And he said: ‘Hear ye now, O house of David: Is it a small thing for you to weary men, that ye will weary my God also?

Ibn Ezra on Isaiah

To weary men. To make them tired of a thing which they have tried to accomplish, so that they become unable to continue their efforts. Because you are kings, and people cannot resist you, you think the same about the ways of God.14You think, that in the same way, as men become weary in their resistance against you, God is weary and unable to oppose your plans.
