Commentary for Lamentations 3:32
כִּ֣י אִם־הוֹגָ֔ה וְרִחַ֖ם כְּרֹ֥ב חסדו [חֲסָדָֽיו׃]
For though He cause grief, yet will He have compassion According to the multitude of His mercies.
Rashi on Lamentations
Rather should he [man] cause grief. If man brings grief upon himself because of his sin[s], afterwards, He will yet have compassion in accordance with His immense grace.26Alternatively, ‘He first afflicts, then pities according to His abundant kindness.’ (Targum)
