62 what my enemies whisper and mutter against me all day long.
62 The lips of those that rose up against me, and their device against me all the day.
62 The lips and thoughts of my assailants are against me all the day long.
62 They never quit, these enemies of mine, dreaming up mischief, hatching out malice, day after day after day.
62 The lips of my enemies And their whispering against me all the day.
62 My enemies whisper and mutter as they plot against me all day long.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Lamentations 3:62
Commentary on Lamentations 3:55-66
(Read Lamentations 3:55-66)
Faith comes off conqueror, for in these verses the prophet concludes with some comfort. Prayer is the breath of the new man, drawing in the air of mercy in petitions, and returning it in praises; it proves and maintains the spiritual life. He silenced their fears, and quieted their spirits. Thou saidst, Fear not. This was the language of God's grace, by the witness of his Spirit with their spirits. And what are all our sorrows, compared with those of the Redeemer? He will deliver his people from every trouble, and revive his church from every persecution. He will save believers with everlasting salvation, while his enemies perish with everlasting destruction.
