Isaiah 45:23 Douay-Rheims

I have sworn by myself, the word of justice shall go out of my mouth, and shall not return:

George Leo Haydock

1774–1849 Catholic

Myself, having none greater, Hebrews vi. 13. — Justice: sure. — To me. All that are born belong to me. The Jewish women had seldom recourse to midwives, (Exodus i. 19., and 1 Kings iv. 19.; Calmet) no more than the Ethiopians. (Ludolf. i. 14.) — Swear, by the true God. (Haydock) — Oaths on proper occasions, honour him, Deuteronomy vi. 13. Nothing could be spoken more plainly of the Gentiles’ conversion.
