Psalm 11:4 Douay-Rheims

May the Lord destroy all deceitful lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things.

Augustine of Hippo

A.D. 354–430 Patristic

"May the Lord destroy all deceitful lips" [Psalm 12:3]. He says "all," that no one may suppose himself excepted: as the Apostle says, "Upon every soul of man that does evil, of the Jew first, and of the Greek." [Romans 2:9] "The tongue speaking great things:" the proud tongue.
