Lamentations 1:22
"Let all their wickedness come before thee; and do unto them, as thou hast done unto me for all my transgressions: for my sighs are many, and my heart is faint."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

Let all their wickedness come before thee,.... The Targum adds, "in the day of the great judgment;'' but it seems to refer to present time, at least to the time fixed by the Lord for their ruin; and which the church imprecates, not from a spirit of revenge,

but from a holy zeal for the glory of God; desiring that the wickedness of her enemies might be remembered by the Lord, so as to punish them in righteous judgment for the same: and do unto them as thou hast done unto me for all my transgressions; she owns that what was done to her was for her sins, and therefore could not charge God with injustice; only she desires the same might be done to her enemies, who were equally guilty: some render it, "glean them" (q); or rather, "gather them as a vintage"; or as grapes are gathered: "as thou hast gathered me"; as thou hast took me, and cast me into the winepress of thy wrath, and there hast trodden and squeezed me; see Lam 1:15 ; so do unto them: for my sighs are many, and my heart is faint; her sighs were many because of her afflictions, and her heart faint because of her sighing. (q) , Sept. "vindemia", V. L. Vatablus. Next: Lamentations Chapter 2 Sacred Texts | Bible « Previous: John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible: Lamentations:...
