Contextual Overview

42 We haue ben dissemblers and haue offended, wylt thou therefore not be intreated? 43 Thou hast couered vs in thy wrath, and persecuted vs: thou hast slayne vs without any fauour. 44 Thou hast hid thy selfe in a cloude, that our prayer should not go through. 45 Thou hast made vs outcastes, and to be despised among the people. 46 All our enemies gape vpon vs. 47 Feare and pit is come vpon vs, yea deceipt and destruction. 48 Whole riuers of water gushe out of mine eyes for the hurt of my people: 49 Myne eyes runne and cannot ceasse, for there is no rest: 50 O Lorde, when wylt thou looke downe from heauen and consider? 51 Mine eyes breaketh my heart, because of all the daughters of my citie.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Mine eye runneth down with rivers of waters,.... Denoting the greatness of his grief and trouble at the afflictions of his people, and the vast profusion of tears on that account. Here the prophet speaks in his own person, expressing the anguish of his soul he felt, and the floods of tears he shed:

for the destruction of the daughter of my people; for those that were slain of them, or carried captive; see Jeremiah 9:1. The Targum is,

"for the destruction of the congregation of my people.''

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The deep sympathy of the prophet, which pours itself forth in abundant tears over the distress of his people.

Lamentations 3:51

Or, “Mine eye” causeth pain to my soul, i. e. maketh my soul ache, because of the sad fate of the maidens (Lamentations 1:4, Lamentations 1:18, ...).

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 48. Mine eye runneth down — I weep incessantly.
