“Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?”
My eyes fail with watching for your promise; I ask, 'When will you comfort me?' The wearied waiting ('eyes fail') for God's fulfillment ('your promise') produces the anguished question. This verse captures the pathos of deferred hope.
