Psalm 20:12
Douay-Rheims
For they have intended evils against thee: they have devised counsels which they have not been able to establish.
Augustine of Hippo
"For You shall set them low." For You shall rank them among those from whom in degradation and contempt You will turn away. "In Your leavings You shall make ready their countenance" [Psalm 21:12]. And in these things that Thou leavest, that is, in the desires of an earthly kingdom, You shall make ready their shamelessness for Your passion.
