John Trapp on Jeremiah 4:19

Ver. 19. My bowels, my bowels] So my head, my head, 2 King. 4.19. My leanneſſe, my leanneſſe, Iſa. 24.16. Thus the Prophet here, to expreſſe his inexpreſſible grief for the calamities of his people.Dolco inſtar parturientis.

I am pained] as a woman in travel.

At the very heart] Heb. at the walls of my heart, ſc. to ſee, in ſpirit, the City-walls ſurprized.

My hear maketh a noiſe in him] Saltitat & palpitat ut in pavidis & perculſis fi[illegible: 1 letter] ri ſolet, leaps and throbs.

I cannot hold my peace] Heb. I will not.

Becauſe thou hast heard] i. e. I have heard in the Spirit, and am affected with it, as if already come.
