Psalm 109:29

Listen to Psalm 109:29
29 Let those who accuse me wear disgrace as though it were clothing. Let them be wrapped in their shame as though it were a robe.

Psalm 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 ) .
