Isaiah 50:4
Douay-Rheims
The Lord hath given me a learned tongue, that I should know how to uphold by word him that is weary: he wakeneth in the morning, in the morning he wakeneth my ear, that I may hear him as a master.
George Leo Haydock
Weary. Isaias speaks in the name of Christ, whose words carried conviction and comfort along with them, John vi. 69., and vii. 46. (Calmet) — Wakeneth. Literally, “lifteth up.” Cynthius aurem — Vellit. (Ec. vi.) — Hear, or obey. (Haydock) — Christ preached more powerfully than Isaias, and continues to do so by his pastors. (St. Jerome) (Worthington)
