Etymology 2

Probably borrowed from Estonian isuma (due to lack of evidence of use of this word in vernacular dialects),^[1] from Proto-Finnic *iso +‎ -ta; compare Ingrian iso (“desire, lust”), isota (“to desire, to hunger for”); Veps izo, izonē (“beloved”); Votic iso (“desire, appetite”); Estonian isu (“desire, lust”), isuma, isunema (“to desire, to hunger for”); Võro iso (“desire, lust”). Probably ultimately a loanword from Proto-Iranian *Hišáti or one of its descendants.^[2]

Verb

isota (archaic)

(transitive, usually atelic) to hunger for, desire (e.g. power)
Autuaita ovat ne, jotka isoavat ja janoavat vanhurskautta, sillä heidät ravitaan.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
