Psalms 109:29 - Exposition

Let mine adversaries be clothed with shame ; rather, my adversaries shall be clothed with shame. "The prayer is now, in conclusion, changed into a confident expectation" (Dean Johnson). And let them (rather, and shall ) cover themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle (comp. Psalms 109:18 ). Instead of the "cursing" with which the wicked delighted to clothe themselves, they shall be forced to wear a covering of shame and confusion of face.
