Psalm 37:21
Douay-Rheims
The sinner shall borrow, and not pay again; but the just sheweth mercy and shall give.
George Leo Haydock
Give. Having both the will and the power to be liberal. (Haydock) — “He shall lend without expecting any advantage, while the wicked falls into such misery as not to be able to pay his debts. This is not always the order of Providence. (Calmet) — But the just is often enabled by economy to relieve his brethren, at the same time that the libertine wastes his estate, (Berthier) or at least unjustly defers to pay his debts. (Menochius)
