House, Lamentations, p. 414. דסח is predicated of Yhwh in Gen. 24:12, 14, 27; 32:11; 39:21; Exod. 15:13; 20:6; 34:6-7; Num. 14:18-19; Deut. 5:10; 7:9, 12; 1 Sam. 20:14; 2 Sam. 2:6; 7:15; 15:20; 22:26, 51; 1 Kgs 3:6; 8:23; Isa. 54:8, 10; 55:3; 63:7; Jer. 3:12; 9:23; 16:5; 31:3; 32:18; 33:11; Hos. 2:21; Joel 2:13; Jon. 4:2; Mic. 7:18, 20. Reading synchronically, the covenant context of דסח resounds. R.B. Salters, however, suggests that linking דסח to covenant was a relatively late development, such that “it is perhaps reading too much into this passage to assume that the poet was thinking of the covenant” (Salters, Lamentations [ICC; New York: T & T Clark, 2010], p. 225; cf. J. Renkema, Lamentations [trans. Brian Doyle; HCOT; Leuven: Peeters, 1998], p. 385).

In a Bakhtinian framework, “a given proverb is easily seen as monologic: it is ‘no-man’s-speech’” (Stordalen, “Dialogue and Dialogism in Job,” p. 36). The very “procedure of collecting proverbs into continuous writing forces ‘monologic’ utterances to meet and wrestle,” such that “there is a discernible intent to engage outside discourse by citing it” (Stordalen, “Dialogue and Dialogism in Job,” p. 36, emphasis original). By citing proverbial wisdom here, then, the רבג engages this outside discourse dialogically, in an attempt to integrate sapiential mores with his experience of suffering.

Berlin agrees that vv. 40-41 suggest the straightforward equation: “If God is indeed so good and so merciful, and if the people have sinned, the natural next step is that the people must repent and then they will surely be forgiven” (A. Berlin, Lamentations [OTL; Louisville: Westminster John Knox, 2002], pp. 95-96). She rightly foreshadows, however, the “sudden jolt” that upsets the assumption in v. 42 (Berlin, Lamentations, p. 96).
