Deuteronomy 4:6
Douay-Rheims
And you shall observe, and fulfill them in practice. For this is your wisdom, and understanding in the sight of nations, that hearing all these precepts, they may say: Behold a wise and understanding people, a great nation.
George Leo Haydock
This is a proof of your wisdom, &c., if you observe these commands. Your conduct will excite the admiration of all. (Menochius) — Solomon often inculcates the same truths, Proverbs i. 7., and Ecclesiasticus i. 34. Even profane writers applauded the laws and fidelity of the Jews. See Josephus, Jewish Wars i. 5.; Strabo xvi. (Calmet)
