1 [Ecce in justitia regnabit rex, et principes in judicio præerunt. 2 Et erit vir sicut qui absconditur a vento, et celat se a tempestate; sicut rivi aquarum in siti, et umbra petræ prominentis in terra deserta. 3 Non caligabunt oculi videntium, et aures audientium diligenter auscultabunt. 4 Et cor stultorum intelliget scientiam, et lingua balborum velociter loquetur et plane. 5 Non vocabitur ultra is qui insipiens est, princeps, neque fraudulentus appellabitur major; 6 stultus enim fatua loquetur, et cor ejus faciet iniquitatem, ut perficiat simulationem, et loquatur ad Dominum fraudulenter, et vacuam faciat animam esurientis, et potum sitienti auferat. 7 Fraudulenti vasa pessima sunt; ipse enim cogitationes concinnavit ad perdendos mites in sermone mendacii, cum loqueretur pauper judicium. 8 Princeps vero ea quæ digna sunt principe cogitabit, et ipse super duces stabit.] 9 [Mulieres opulentæ, surgite, et audite vocem meam; filiæ confidentes, percipite auribus eloquium meum. 10 Post dies enim et annum, vos conturbabimini confidentes; consummata est enim vindemia, collectio ultra non veniet. 11 Obstupescite, opulentæ; conturbamini, confidentes: exuite vos et confundimini; accingite lumbos vestros. 12 Super ubera plangite, super regione desiderabili, super vinea fertili. 13 Super humum populi mei spinæ et vepres ascendent: quanto magis super omnes domos gaudii civitatis exultantis ! 14 Domus enim dimissa est, multitudo urbis relicta est, tenebræ et palpatio factæ sunt super speluncas usque in æternum; gaudium onagrorum, pascua gregum. 15 Donec effundatur super nos spiritus de excelso, et erit desertum in carmel, et carmel in saltum reputabitur. 16 Et habitabit in solitudine judicium, et justitia in carmel sedebit. 17 Et erit opus justitiæ pax, et cultus justitiæ silentium, et securitas usque in sempiternum. 18 Et sedebit populus meus in pulchritudine pacis, et in tabernaculis fiduciæ, et in requie opulenta. 19 Grando autem in descensione saltus, et humilitate humiliabitur civitas. 20 Beati qui seminatis super omnes aquas, immittentes pedem bovis et asini.]

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Behold, a righteous king shall reign, and princes shall rule with judgment." And with regard to the foundation on which it shall be rebuilt, he says: "Behold, I will lay in order for thee a carbuncle stone, and sapphire for thy foundations; and I will lay thy ramparts with jasper, and thy gates with crystal, and thy wall with choice …
