This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
It would be heavier, i.e. my grief or calamity,
than the sand of the sea, which is heavier than dry sand.
Swallowed up, as this verb is used, Pro_20:25 Oba_1:16. My voice and spirit faileth me. So far am I from speaking too liberally of it, for which I am now accused, that I cannot find nor utter words sufficient to express my sorrow or misery; but my groanings are such as cannot be uttered, as is said in another case, Rom_8:26. When I would express it, the words stick in my throat, and I am forced, as it were, to swallow them up.
