Psalm 61:4
Douay-Rheims
How long do you rush in upon a man? you all kill, as if you were thrusting down a leaning wall, and a tottering fence.
Francis Patrick Kenrick
The comparisons are founded on theii- idea of the prince, whose overthrow seemed to them easy and certain. St. Jerome puts them in the nominative, so that he likens them to a leaning wall that threa- tens to bury the bystanders beneath its ruins.
