Rather, "I have seen his ways (in sin), yet will I heal him," that is, restore Israel spiritually and temporally (Jeremiah 33:6; Jeremiah 3:22; Hosea 14:4-5) [HORSLEY].
I will . . . restore comforts unto him and to his mourners—However, the phrase, "his mourners," favors English Version; "his ways" will thus be his ways of repentance; and God's pardon on "seeing" them answers to the like promise (Isaiah 61:2-3; Jeremiah 31:18, Jeremiah 31:20).
