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 los aplastaron
y los sometieron a su cruel poder.

43 Él los rescató una y otra vez,
pero ellos decidieron rebelarse en su contra,
y finalmente su pecado los destruyó.

44 Aun así, él sintió compasión por la angustia de ellos
y escuchó sus clamores.

45 Recordó el pacto que les había hecho
y desistió a causa de su amor inagotable.

46 Hasta hizo que sus captores
los trataran con amabilidad.
