“Have respect unto the covenant: for the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of cruelty.”
The request that God have regard for the covenant articulates the appeal to God's covenantal obligation. The reference to dark places of the land being full of violence indicates the complete breakdown of order. This verse petitions for God to remember covenantal commitment in the face of pervasive violence.
