Psalm 6:7
Douay-Rheims
I have laboured in my groanings, every night I will wash my bed: I will water my couch with my tears.
George Leo Haydock
Bed. St. Jerome, “I will make my bed swim” (Haydock) with tears, or sweat. (Berthier) — Here we behold the effects of true repentance, which will not suffer the sinner to enjoy any repose, (Calmet) when he reflects on the pains of hell, and the perfections of God. (Haydock) — “O sweet affliction, which extinguishes the fire of hell, and restores man to the friendship of his God.” (St. Chrysostom)
