Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 12. - They that sit in the gate speak against me; rather, talk about me (Revised Version) - make me their theme (Cheyne). The gates, where the chief business was done, were no doubt also places of gossip. And I was the song of the drunkards (comp. Job 30:9); literally, of the drinkers of strong drink.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(12) In the gate . . .--The place of public resort where justice was administered. (See Psalm 9:14 Note.)And I was the song.--Literally, and songs of those drinking strong drink, but we must supply the pronoun.
