Context of Psalms 32:10
8I will teach you the right way to live. I will be your guide and I will take care of you. 9Do not be like a silly horse, or a mule. You have to use a rope to show them which way to go. Without that, they will not obey you. Wicked people will receive a lot of trouble and pain. But if anyone trusts in the Lord, they will know that God always loves them. 11So all you people who belong to the Lord, praise him and be happy! All of you who are good, honest people, shout aloud because you are so happy!

- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 10Many sorrows shall be to the wicked - The meaning here is, probably, that those who will not submit themselves to God in the manner which the psalmist recommends; who are like the horse and the mule, needing to be restrained, and who are to be restrained only by force, will experience bitter sorrows.
