Will you refrain yourself for these things, O LORD? will you hold your peace, and afflict us very sore?
Will you refrain yourself for these things, O LORD? will you hold your peace, and afflict us very sore?
Wilt thou refrain thyself for these things, O Jehovah? wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict us very sore?
In view of all this, will you still do nothing, O Lord? will you keep quiet, and go on increasing our punishment?
Wilt thou refrain thyself for these things, O LORD? wilt thou hold thy peace, and grievously afflict us?
Will you refrain yourself for these things, Yahweh? Will you hold your peace, and afflict us very severely?
Wilt thou refrain thyself for these things, O LORD? wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict us very sore?
Wilt thou refrain thyself - Wilt thou refuse to come to our aid? Wilt thou decline to visit us, and save us from our calamities?
Wilt thou hold thy peace - Wilt thou not speak for our rescue, and command us to be delivered? Thus closes this chapter of great tenderness and beauty. It is a model of affectionate and earnest entreaty for the divine interposition in the day of calamity. With such tender and affectionate earnestness may we learn to plead with God! Thus may all his people learn to approach him as a Father: thus feel that they have the inestimable privilege, in times of trial, of making known their needs to the High and Holy One. Thus, when calamity presses on us; when as individuals or as families we are afflicted; or when our country or the church is suffering under long trials, may we go to God and humbly confess our sins, and urge his promises, and take hold of his strength, and plead with him to interpose. Thus pleading, be will hear us; thus presenting our cause, he will interpose to save.
64:12 Wilt thou - Do none of these things move thee to take vengeance?Thy peace - Wilt thou be as one that regards not?
