Read Lamentations 3.52-66. In 3.52-66: A psalm of praise. As in 3.1-24, the individual catalogues his complaints generally and metaphorically: like a bird, v. 52; pit, vv 53,55 (Ps 7.15;9.10). As in a psalm of thanksgiving (Ps 31), God is reported to have answered the prayer. In verse 52: Without cause: Strikingly different from the assumption of guilt (vv. 22-39). In verses 59-66: Complaint about enemies. Although the preceding verses suggest that God has already responded to the individual's plea, the speaker explicitly calls for God to punish enemies (1.21-22). Comments or Questions..
