| (Lam 3:8). The "cloud" is our sins, and God's wrath because of them (Isa 44:22; Isa 59:2). |
2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.
22 I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee.
8 Also when I cry and shout, he shutteth out my prayer.
