Psalms 109:29 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 109:29

Let mine adversaries be clothed with shame
This is only explanative of what is said before,

And let them cover themselves with their own confusion as with a
mantle:
the Arabic version is, "as with a breastplate." Some understand it as a petition of Christ, that they might be brought to repentance for their sins, and so to shame for them; which is an instance of his wondrous grace and goodness; and it is certain he prayed for the forgiveness of his enemies when on the cross, ( Luke 23:34 ) .

Psalms 109:29 In-Context

27 Let them know that this is Your hand, that You, O LORD, have done it.

28 Though they curse, You will bless. When they rise up, they will be put to shame, but Your servant will rejoice.

29 May my accusers be clothed with disgrace; may they wear their shame like a robe.

30 With my mouth I will thank the LORD profusely; I will praise Him in the presence of many.

31 For He stands at the right hand of the needy one, to save him from the condemners of his soul.
