Lamentations 3 is built on an alphabetic pattern in which each successive set of three verses opens with the same Hebrew letter following the order of the Hebrew alphabet. Verse 60 stands within that arrangement as one of three consecutive verses sharing the same initial Hebrew letter. That acrostic ordering disappears in English, where the translation does not preserve the repeated initial letters.
The verse declares that God has fully observed the retaliation directed at Jeremiah. What was seen includes both the vengeance of his enemies and all their hostile imaginations and plans formed against him.
