Salmos 69:11 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 69:11

I made sackcloth also my garment
Though we nowhere read that Jesus put on sackcloth upon any occasion, yet it is not improbable that he did; besides, the phrase may only intend that he mourned and sorrowed at certain times, as persons do when they put on sackcloth: moreover, as the common garb of his forerunner was raiment of camels' hair, with a leathern girdle; so it is very likely his own was very mean, suitable to his condition; who, though he was rich, for our sakes became poor;

and I became a proverb to them;
a byword; so that when they saw any person in sackcloth, or in vile raiment, behold such an one looks like Jesus of Nazareth.

Salmos 69:11 In-Context

9 Pois o zelo da tua casa me devorou, e as afrontas dos que te afrontam caíram sobre mim.

10 Quando chorei e castiguei com jejum a minha alma, isto se me tornou em afrontas.

11 Quando me vesti de cilício, fiz-me para eles um provérbio.

12 Aqueles que se sentem � porta falam de mim; e sou objeto das cantigas dos bêbedos.

13 Eu, porém, faço a minha oração a ti, ó Senhor, em tempo aceitável; ouve-me, ó Deus, segundo a grandeza da tua benignidade, segundo a fidelidade da tua salvação.
