He hath—broken my teeth— He hath broken my teeth as a gravel-stone. He hath fed me with dust. Houbigant. In this and the preceding verse the prophet aggravates the calamities of his people by such expressions as imply that misery and affliction are poured without measure upon the sons of Jacob. Possibly he alludes to his personal afflictions. See Jeremiah 37; Jeremiah 38.
