Deuteronomy 32:36

The Lord shall judge his people (cf. Psalms 135:14 ; 1 Peter 4:17 ). And repent himself for his servants ; rather, and have compassion upon his servants . And there is none shut up, or left . The words rendered "shut up or left" are a proverbial expression for "every one, men of all sorts" (cf. 1 Kings 14:10 ; 1 Kings 21:21 ; 2 Kings 9:8 ; 2 Kings 14:26 ); but how the words are to be rendered or explained is uncertain. Rosenmüller renders as in the Authorized Version; Gesenius has, "the shut up and the let go free, the bond and the flee;" so also Furst and De Wette; De Dieu, "married and single, conjugatus et coelebs ," referring to the Arabic usage in support of his conclusion, and this Keil approves. Ewald has "kept in (by legal impurity) or at large." The explanation of Gesenius and Furst seems best.
