Klaagliederen 3:55 Meaning and Commentary

Lamentations 3:55

I called upon thy name, O Lord
As in times past, so in the present distress; when all hope was gone, and all help failed, still there was a God to go to, and call upon: out of the low dungeon;
or "dungeon of lownesses" F18; the lowest dungeon, the deepest distress, a man or people could be in; yet then and there it is not too late to call upon the Lord; and there may be hope of deliverance out of such an estate by him.

55 Koph. HEERE! Ik heb Uw Naam aangeroepen uit den ondersten kuil.
56 Koph. Gij hebt mijn stem gehoord, verberg Uw oor niet voor mijn zuchten, voor mijn roepen.
57 Koph. Gij hebt U genaderd ten dage, als ik U aanriep; Gij hebt gezegd: Vrees niet!
