A Prophetic Judgment
Commentators suggest this isn't just David's personal wish but a prophetic judgment. Matthew Henry views it as Jesus speaking as a Judge, denouncing the consequences of rejecting salvation. John Gill specifically applies it to the descendants of Judas and others who rejected Christ, whose children were scattered after Jerusalem's destruction. This frames the harsh words as a divine sentence on sin, not just personal revenge.
