Lamentazioni 3:63 Meaning and Commentary

Lamentations 3:63

Behold their sitting down, and their rising up
All their actions; the whole course of their lives; all which fell under the divine omniscience, ( Psalms 139:2 ) ; but that is not barely here meant; but that he would take particular notice hereof, and punish for the same. It may have respect both to their lying down at night, and rising in the morning; and to their sitting down at meals, and rising from them; at which times they were always meditating mischief against the people of God, or speaking opprobriously of them; when they made sport of them, as follows: I [am] their music;
or "music maker" F26; as Samson was to the Philistines; the matter of their mirth; the subject of their song; and the object of their derision.

Lamentazioni 3:63 In-Context

61 Tu odi i loro oltraggi, o Eterno, tutte le loro macchinazioni contro di me,
62 il linguaggio di quelli che si levano contro di me, quello che meditano contro di me tutto il giorno!
63 Guarda! quando si seggono, quando s’alzano, io sono la loro canzone.
64 Tu li retribuirai, o Eterno, secondo l’opera delle loro mani.
65 Darai loro induramento di cuore, la tua maledizione.
