Isaiah26:16
16 O LORD, in trouble have they visited thee , they poured out a prayer when thy chastning was upon them .
To wit, thy People, as appears both from the Matter of this Verse, and from the following Verses.
Come into thy Presence, with their Prayers and Supplications, as the next Clause explains it.
Which notes the Plenty or rather the Earnestness of their Prayers, as Psal. 42. 4. & 142. 2[illegible: 1+ letters]
Heb. a muttering or lowly speech, such as Charmers use, and such as Hezekiah used when he was in great distress, Isa. 38. 14. Like a crane or swallow so did I chatter, I did mourn as a dove; and such as is usual in case of great humiliation and dejection of Mind.
When thou wast punishing them for their Sins.
Marginal references: Heb. secret speech.
