Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 43. - Thou hast covered with anger. The clause seems imperfect; perhaps "thyself" has fallen out of the text (see next verse).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(43) Thou hast covered with anger.--Better, as in the next verse, Thou hast covered thyself. Wrath is as the garment in which God wraps Himself to execute His righteous judgments. In Lamentations 3:44 the wrath is represented more definitely as a cloud through which the prayers of the afflicted cannot pass.
