Clementine Latin Vulgate (1592)
Et dicis : Quid enim novit Deus ? et quasi per caliginem judicat.
Jerome's Latin Vulgate (405)
span data-lang="lat" data-trans="jvl" data-ref="psa.22.1" class="versetxt"> Psalmus David. [Dominus regit me, et nihil mihi deerit:
in loco pascu�, ibi me collocavit.
Super aquam refectionis educavit me;
animam meam convertit.
Deduxit me super semitas justiti�
propter nomen suum.
Nam etsi ambulavero in medio umbr� mortis,
non timebo mala, quoniam tu mecum es.
Virga tua, et baculus tuus,
ipsa me consolata sunt.
Parasti in conspectu meo mensam
adversus eos qui tribulant me;
impinguasti in oleo caput meum:
et calix meus inebrians, quam pr�clarus est!
Et misericordia tua subsequetur me
omnibus diebus vit� me�;
et ut inhabitem in domo Domini
in longitudinem dierum.]

Gill's Notes on the Bible

They gaped upon me [with] their mouths,.... Either by way of derision and contempt, Job 16:10; or belching out blasphemy against him, or rather, with the greatest vehemency, crying out "Crucify him, crucify him", Luke 23:21; and this they did

[as] a ravening and roaring lion, when it has got its prey and rejoices, Amos 3:4; and being in such hands, and encompassed about with such enemies, as Christ was in the garden, in the high priest's hall, and in Pilate's judgment hall, is a third reason or argument used by him with God his Father, to be near to him and not far from him.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

They gaped upon me with their mouths - Margin, as in Hebrew, “opened their mouths against me.” That is, they opened their mouths wide as if they would devour me, as a lion does when he seizes upon his prey. In Psalms 22:7 they are represented as “opening” the mouth for another purpose - that of derision or scorn; here they are described as if they were fierce and wild beasts ready to fall upon their prey.

As a ravening and roaring lion - The word “ravening” means “voraciously devouring,” and the allusion in the Hebrew word is to the lion as he tears his prey - טרף ṭâraph - rending it in pieces to devour it. All this is designed to denote the greediness with which the enemies of the Redeemer sought his life.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 22:13. They gaped upon me — They were fiercely and madly beat on my destruction.
