Ambrose of Milan, on Ps 39:10

“I have declared thy justice in a great church, lo, I will not restrain my lips: O Lord, thou knowest it.”

“A person can speak of his own justice without arrogance, … if he has faith in God and believes that on account of his faith he will be reckoned as just. … It was for this reason that Christ came, to establish faith and to grant us forgiveness of sin.”
