Gill's Notes on the Bible
And I will cast abominable filth upon thee,.... As dirt and dung, or any or everything that is abominable and filthy; and which is thrown at harlots publicly disgraced, and as used to be at persons when carted. The meaning is, that this city and its inhabitants should be stripped of everything that was great and glorious in them, and should be reduced to the utmost shame and ignominy:
and make thee vile: mean, abject, contemptible, the offscouring of all things; rejected and disesteemed of all; had in no manner of repute or account, but in the utmost abhorrence:
and I will set thee as a gazingstock; to be looked and laughed at: or, "for an example" e; to others, that they may shun the evils and abominations Nineveh had been guilty of, or expect the same disgrace and punishment. Kimchi interprets it "as dung" f; to be no more reckoned of than that, or to be made a dunghill of; and so many others interpret it; or, "for a looking glass" g; that others may look into, and take warning, and avoid the sins that have brought on such calamities.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And I will cast abominable filth upon thee - Alb.: âlike a weight, that what thou wouldest not take heed to as sin, thou mayest feel in punishment.â âAbominable things had God seenâ Jeremiah 13:27 in her doings; with abominable things would he punish her. Man would fain sin, and forget it as a thing past. âGod maketh him to possess the iniquities of his youthâ Job 13:26, and binds them around him, so that they make him to appear what they are, âvileâ (compare Wisd. 4:18), âThese things hast thou done and I kept silence; - I will reprove thee and set them in order before thine eyes. And will set thee as a gazing-stockâ Psalms 50:21, that all, while they gaze at thee, take warning from thee (compare 2 Chronicles 7:20). âI will cast thee to the ground; before kings will I give thee, for them to gaze upon theeâ Ezekiel 28:17. : âWhoever does not amend on occasion of others, others shall be amended on occasion of him.â
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 6. I will cast abominable filth upon thee — I will set thee as a gazing-stock. This was a punishment precisely like our pillory. They put such women in the pillory as a gazing-stock; and then, children and others threw mud, dirt, and filth of all kinds at them.
