Psalms 109:29
Context109:29 My accusers will be covered 1 with shame,
and draped in humiliation as if it were a robe.
Psalms 132:18
Context132:18 I will humiliate his enemies, 2
and his crown will shine.
Psalms 44:15

and am overwhelmed with shame, 4
Psalms 70:3
Context70:3 May those who say, “Aha! Aha!”


[109:29] 1 tn Heb “clothed.” Another option is to translate the prefixed verbal forms in this line and the next as jussives (“may my accusers be covered with shame”).
[132:18] 2 tn Heb “his enemies I will clothe [with] shame.”
[44:15] 3 tn Heb “all the day my humiliation [is] in front of me.”
[44:15] 4 tn Heb “and the shame of my face covers me.”
[70:3] 4 tn The prefixed verbal form is understood as a jussive in this imprecation.
[70:3] 5 tn Heb “May they be turned back according to their shame, those who say, ‘Aha! Aha!’” Ps 40:15 has the verb “humiliated” instead of “turned back” and adds “to me” after “say.”
