Psalm 106:44 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 106:44

Nevertheless he regarded their affliction
Or "looked on them in distress" ^F4; he saw their affliction, and had compassion on them; he was so far from abhorring and despising the affliction of the afflicted, that he pitied them and sympathized with them; in all their afflictions he was afflicted; he looked upon them with an eye of pity and concern, and helped them out of their troubles.

When he heard their cry;
or their "prayer", as the Targum, and so other versions; crying is prayer; and it denotes vocal and vehement prayer, such as is put up to God in distress; and which he hears and answers; his ears are open to the cries of his people.

Psalm 106:44 In-Context

42 Sus enemigos también los oprimieron, y fueron subyugados bajo su poder.

43 Muchas veces los libró; ellos, sin embargo, fueron rebeldes a su consejo, y se hundieron en su iniquidad.

44 Sin embargo, El vio su angustia al escuchar su clamor;

45 y por amor a ellos se acordó de su pacto, y se arrepintió conforme a la grandeza de su misericordia.

46 Les hizo también objeto de compasión en presencia de todos los que los tenían cautivos.
