Contextual Overview

⁴² We, have trespassed and rebelled, Thou, hast not pardoned. ⁴³ Thou hast covered thyself with anger, and pursued us, hast slain - hast not spared; ⁴⁴ Thou hast screened thyself with the clouds, that prayer, should not pass through; ⁴⁵ Offscouring and refuse, dost thou make us, in the midst of the peoples. ⁴⁶ With their mouth, opened wide over us, stand all our foes. ⁴⁷ Terror and a pit, have befallen us, tumult and grievous injury; ⁴⁸ With streams of water, mine eye runneth down, over the grievous injury of the daughter of my people. ⁴⁹ Mine eye, poureth itself out and ceaseth not, without relief; ⁵⁰ Until Yahweh out of the heavens shall look forth, and see, ⁵¹ Mine eye dealeth severely with my soul, because of all the daughters of my city.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

All our enemies have opened their mouths against us. Like lions and other beasts of prey, to devour us; or in way of scorn and derision; pouring out their reproaches upon us, and scoffs at us, for our religion, and the worship of God, and on account of present miseries and distresses; see Lamentations 2:16. The Targum adds,

"to decree against us evil decrees.''
