Contextual Overview
22 The Lord says, "I will bring my enemies down from Bashan; I will bring them up from the depths of the sea. 23 You, my people, will wash your feet in their blood, and even your dogs will get their share!" 24 Your procession has come into view, O God— the procession of my God and King as he goes into the sanctuary. 25 Singers are in front, musicians behind; between them are young women playing tambourines. 26 Praise God, all you people of Israel; praise the Lord , the source of Israel's life. 27 Look, the little tribe of Benjamin leads the way. Then comes a great throng of rulers from Judah and all the rulers of Zebulun and Naphtali. 28 Summon your might, O God. Display your power, O God, as you have in the past. 29 The kings of the earth are bringing tribute to your Temple in Jerusalem. 30 Rebuke these enemy nations— these wild animals lurking in the reeds, this herd of bulls among the weaker calves. Make them bring bars of silver in humble tribute. Scatter the nations that delight in war. 31 Let Egypt come with gifts of precious metals; let Ethiopia bring tribute to God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of [thine] enemies,.... This verse is in connection with Psalms 68:21, with Psalms 68:23 being to be read in a parenthesis: the sense is, that the Messiah would so wound the head and hairy scalp of his people's enemies, and there should be such a large effusion of blood, that their feet should be dipped therein, Revelation 14:20;
Revelation 14:20- :;
[and] the tongue of thy dogs in the same; who should lick it up, as the dogs licked the blood of Jezebel, 1 Kings 21:19; and so such a carnage will be made of antichrist and his followers, that the fowls of the heavens will be called upon to eat the flesh of kings, captains, and mighty ones, Revelation 19:17.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine enemies ... - Margin, “red.” A more literal rendering would be, “That thou mayest crush - thy foot in blood - the tongue of thy dogs from the enemies, from him.” The idea of “dipping” the foot in blood is not in the passage directly; but the leading thought is that of “crushing” the enemy. It is then “added” that the foot would be in blood. So of the tongue of the dogs. The “meaning” is, that the tongues of dogs would be employed in licking up the blood of the enemies, though that is not “expressed” in so many words. The sense of the whole is, that the foes of the people would be slain.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Psalms 68:23. That thy foot may be dipped in the blood — God will make such a slaughter among his enemies, the Amorites, that thou shalt walk over their dead bodies; and beasts of prey shall feed upon them.
