SEV Biblia, Chapter 5:21

Vuélvenos, oh SEÑOR, a ti, y nos volveremos; renueva nuestros días como al principio.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Lamentations 5:21

Verse 21.
Renew our days as of old.] Restore us to our former state. Let us regain our country, our temple, and all the Divine offices of our religion; but, more especially, thy favour.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 21. Turn thou us unto thee, O
Lord, and we shall be turned , etc.] This prayer expresses the sense they had of their backslidings from God, and distance from him; of their inability to turn themselves to the Lord, or convert themselves; and of their need of divine grace, and of the efficacy of that to effect it; (see Jeremiah 31:18); for this is to be understood not only of returning them to their own land, and to the external worship of God in it; but of turning them to the Lord by true and perfect repentance, as the Targum; of the conversion of their hearts and the reformation of their lives: renew our days as of old ; for good, as the Targum adds. The request is, that their good days might be renewed; that they might enjoy the same peace and prosperity, and all good things in their own land, as they had done in days and years past: first they pray for repentance; then restoration.
Matthew Henry Commentary
The Jewish
nation supplicating the Divine favour.

Lam. 5:1-16 Is any afflicted? Let him pray; and let him in prayer pou out his complaint to God. The people of God do so here; they complai not of evils feared, but of evils felt. If penitent and patient unde what we suffer for the sins of our fathers, we may expect that He wh punishes, will return in mercy to us. They acknowledge, Woe unto u that we have sinned! All our woes are owing to our own sin and folly Though our sins and God's just displeasure cause our sufferings, we ma hope in his pardoning mercy, his sanctifying grace, and his kin providence. But the sins of a man's whole life will be punished with vengeance at last, unless he obtains an interest in Him who bare ou sins in his own body on the tree.

Lam. 5:17-22 The people of God express deep concern for the ruins of the temple, more than for any other of their calamities. But whateve changes there are on earth, God is still the same, and remains for eve wise and holy, just and good; with Him there is no variableness no shadow of turning. They earnestly pray to God for mercy and grace; Tur us to thee, O Lord. God never leaves any till they first leave him; is he turns them to him in a way of duty, no doubt he will quickly retur to them in a way of mercy. If God by his grace renew our hearts, he will by his favour renew our days. Troubles may cause our hearts to be faint, and our eyes to be dim, but the way to the mercy-seat of ou reconciled God is open. Let us, in all our trials, put our whole trus and confidence in his mercy; let us confess our sins, and pour out ou hearts before him. Let us watch against repinings and despondency; for we surely know, that it shall be well in the end with all that trus in, fear, love, and serve the Lord. Are not the Lord's judgments in the earth the same as in Jeremiah's days? Let Zion then be remembered by u in our prayers, and her welfare be sought above every earthly joy Spare, Lord, spare thy people, and give not thine heritage to reproach for the heathen to rule over them __________________________________________________________________
