Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 10. - Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg. If it be just that the sins of the fathers be visited upon the children, the psalmist may be regarded as justified in this wish. Still, it is not one that a Christian will readily echo. Let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places. Professor Cheyne corrects דָרְשׁוּ into לֺגּדְשׁוּ, and translates, "Let them be driven from their desolate houses."

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(10) Be continually vagabonds.--"Wander and wander about" would better reproduce the original.Desolate places.--Rather, ruins. They are imagined creeping out of the ruins of their homes to beg. But there was a different reading, followed by the LXX. and Vulg., "let them be driven out of their homes." This reading involves but a slight literal change. Comp.,"Worse evil yet I pray for on my spouse;Let him still live, through strange towns roam in want,Exiled, suspected, cowering, with no home."SENECA: Med., i. 19.
