What Does Lamentations 3:62 Mean?
The verse continues to lay the enemies' hostility before God: 'the lips of those that rose up against me, and their device against me all the day.' Their lips speak against him and their schemes work against him without ceasing, 'all the day.' The opposition is constant, a relentless pressure of words and plots from morning to night.
Yet all of this is spoken in prayer, set before the God who has been confessed to see and hear everything. The sufferer is not merely cataloging his troubles; he is committing them to God. By naming the lips and devices of his enemies before the Lord, he places the whole weight of their hostility into God's keeping. What presses on him all the day, he hands over to the One who never slumbers and never stops watching over his own.
