This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Here we have a wider range, not mourning like its predecessor, but pleading their justice with their adversaries. It is more manifestly as Jews that they pray for Jehovah's arising in His anger against the wicked, their enemy. For the desire is that not Israel only but the congregation of Gentiles compass Jehovah about. Then would be His judgment of the peoples. "Shiggayon of David which he sang unto Jehovah because of the words of Cush, the Benjamite" is the title. It is a song on occasion of wandering: whether Saul or Shimei is meant may be questioned under Cush.

This is not the Christian glorying in tribulation and suffering with Christ that he may be glorified together with Him. It is the zeal and prayer of a Jewish saint appealing to God's sure judgment at the appearing of Christ.
