43 Thou hast covered with anger and pursued us; thou hast slain, thou hast not pitied. 44 Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, so that no prayer can pass through. 45 Thou hast made us an off-scouring and refuse in the midst of the peoples.

Matthew Henry's Commentary on Lamentations 3:43-45

Commentary on Lamentations 3:42-54

(Read Lamentations 3:42-54)
