Lamentations 1:21 meaning and explanation
People have heard my groaning, but there is no one to comfort me. All my enemies have heard of my trouble; they are glad that You have caused it. May You bring the day You have announced, so that they may become like me.
Lamentations 1:21, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
Jerusalem speaks here as a grieving woman, and the chapter is a communal lament over the city's destruction by Babylon in 586 BC. She has no human comforter, and her enemies gloat because they see the LORD himself behind her ruin.
