Albert Barnes Commentary Lamentations 3:34-36

"To crush under foot all the prisoners of the earth, To turn aside the right of a man before the face of the Most High, To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord approveth not." — Lamentations 3:34-36 (ASV)

Neither does God approve of wanton cruelty inflicted by one man on another. Three examples are given: the treatment of prisoners of war; the procuring an unjust sentence before a legal tribunal acting in the name of God ; and the perversion of justice generally.
