Jerome's Latin Vulgate (405)
span data-lang="lat" data-trans="jvl" data-ref="psa.109.1" class="versetxt"> Psalmus David. [Dixit Dominus Domino meo:
Sede a dextris meis,
donec ponam inimicos tuos scabellum pedum tuorum.
Virgam virtutis tuæ emittet Dominus ex Sion:
dominare in medio inimicorum tuorum.
Tecum principium in die virtutis tuæ
in splendoribus sanctorum:
ex utero, ante luciferum, genui te.
Juravit Dominus, et non pœnitebit eum:
Tu es sacerdos in æternum
secundum ordinem Melchisedech.
Dominus a dextris tuis;
confregit in die iræ suæ reges.
Judicabit in nationibus, implebit ruinas;
conquassabit capita in terra multorum.
De torrente in via bibet;
propterea exaltabit caput.]

Gill's Notes on the Bible

I became also a reproach unto them,.... Or they reproached him; not only in life, traducing his conversation, blaspheming his miracles, calling him a Samaritan, saying he had a devil, and charging him with sedition; but at the time of his death they reviled him, and treated him in the most opprobrious manner.

When they looked upon me, they shaked their heads; which was verified in the Jews as they passed by the cross of Christ, whither they came to stare upon him and scoff at him, Matthew 27:39.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

I became also a reproach unto them - They reproached or reviled me as a bad man. Compare the notes at Psalms 22:6. The plural here - “unto them” - shows that there were more than one to whom the psalm had reference, though one of them was so prominent that a considerable part of the psalm might properly be spoken of him alone.

When they looked upon me, they shaked their heads - In contempt. See Psalms 22:7. Compare Matthew 27:39.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 109:25. When they looked upon me they soaked their heads. — Thus was David treated by Shimei, 2 Samuel 16:5-6, and our blessed Lord by the Jews, Matthew 27:39.
