Psalm 25:3 Douay-Rheims

For thy mercy is before my eyes; and I am well pleased with thy truth.

Augustine of Hippo

A.D. 354–430 Patristic

"For Your mercy is before my eyes" [Psalm 26:3]. For, that I be not consumed by that fire, not my merits, but Your mercy, whereby You have brought me on to such a life, is before my eyes. "And I have been pleasing in Your truth." And since my own falsehood has been displeasing to me, but Your truth pleasing, I have myself been pleasing also with it and in it.
