Notes on this text (2)

1 Alleluja. [Confitemini Domino, quoniam bonus, quoniam in sæculum misericordia ejus. 2 Dicat nunc Israël: Quoniam bonus, quoniam in sæculum misericordia ejus. 3 Dicat nunc domus Aaron: Quoniam in sæculum misericordia ejus. 4 Dicant nunc qui timent Dominum: Quoniam in sæculum misericordia ejus. 5 De tribulatione invocavi Dominum, et exaudivit me in latitudine Dominus. 6 Dominus mihi adjutor; non timebo quid faciat mihi homo. 7 Dominus mihi adjutor, et ego despiciam inimicos meos. 8 Bonum est confidere in Domino, quam confidere in homine. 9 Bonum est sperare in Domino, quam sperare in principibus. 10 Omnes gentes circuierunt me, et in nomine Domini, quia ultus sum in eos. 11 Circumdantes circumdederunt me, et in nomine Domini, quia ultus sum in eos. 12 Circumdederunt me sicut apes, et exarserunt sicut ignis in spinis: et in nomine Domini, quia ultus sum in eos. 13 Impulsus eversus sum, ut caderem, et Dominus suscepit me. 14 Fortitudo mea et laus mea Dominus, et factus est mihi in salutem. 15 Vox exsultationis et salutis in tabernaculis justorum. 16 Dextera Domini fecit virtutem; dextera Domini exaltavit me: dextera Domini fecit virtutem. 17 Non moriar, sed vivam, et narrabo opera Domini. 18 Castigans castigavit me Dominus, et morti non tradidit me. 19 Aperite mihi portas justitiæ: ingressus in eas confitebor Domino. 20 Hæc porta Domini: justi intrabunt in eam. 21 Confitebor tibi quoniam exaudisti me, et factus es mihi in salutem. 22 Lapidem quem reprobaverunt ædificantes, hic factus est in caput anguli. 23 A Domino factum est istud, et est mirabile in oculis nostris. 24 Hæc est dies quam fecit Dominus; exsultemus, et lætemur in ea. 25 O Domine, salvum me fac; o Domine, bene prosperare. 26 Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini: benediximus vobis de domo Domini. 27 Deus Dominus, et illuxit nobis. Constituite diem solemnem in condensis, usque ad cornu altaris. 28 Deus meus es tu, et confitebor tibi; Deus meus es tu, et exaltabo te. Confitebor tibi quoniam exaudisti me, et factus es mihi in salutem. 29 Confitemini Domino, quoniam bonus, quoniam in sæculum misericordia ejus.]

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations). Verse numbers below follow the Hebrew/English numbering: 118.

How these were chosen

“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).

  1. Commentary Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm CXVII)

    (ver. 1). These are the courts of the Lord's house, this all His people, this the true Jerusalem. Let those rather listen who have refused to be the children of this city, since they have cut themselves off from the communion of all nations.

    … delude her in those visions and the answers she had from Thee,--some of which I have spoken of, and others not, --which she kept in her faithful breast, and, always petitioning, pressed upon Thee as Thine autograph.

    For thus saith the holy Word: "The Lord hath severely chastened me, yet hath not given me over to death." "For whom the Lord loveth He chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom He receiveth." "The righteous," saith it, "shall chasten me in mercy, and reprove me; but let not the oil of sinners make fat my head." And again he …
