Lamentations 3:50 Meaning and Commentary

Lamentations 3:50

Till the Lord look do: on, and behold from heaven.
] Disperses and dissipates the cloud that was about him; shines forth and manifests himself, and looks favourably upon his people, and delivers them out of their troubles: this the prophet was in hope of, and was waiting for; but, till it came to pass, could have no rest and comfort. The Targum is,

``till he look and behold my injury;''
as if he had regard to his own personal injury done him; but the former sense is best.

Lamentations 3:50 In-Context

48 Des torrents d'eau coulent de mes yeux, A cause de la ruine de la fille de mon peuple.
49 Mon oeil fond en larmes, sans repos, Sans relâche,
50 Jusqu'à ce que l'Eternel regarde et voie Du haut des cieux;
51 Mon oeil me fait souffrir, A cause de toutes les filles de ma ville.
52 Ils m'ont donné la chasse comme à un oiseau, Ceux qui sont à tort mes ennemis.
