George Leo Haydock

Salvation. Jesus Christ, who gives us the victory over all our spiritual enemies, (Calmet) or in thy prosperity; (Worthington) which we shall attribute to God. The first words may also be addressed to Him. We shall rejoice if thou grant us the victory, and we will return thanks. Hebrew, “we shall praise, or be praised, for thy salvation; and in thy name we shall lift up the standard.” (Calmet) — But there is no proof that nodgol, (Haydock) which occurs no where else, has this signification. It is probable that the Septuagint read nogdol; and Houbigant adopts their version. St. Jerome has, “we shall dance.” All the versions denote joy. (Berthier)
