Psalm 40:2
Douay-Rheims
Blessed is he that understandeth concerning the needy and the poor: the Lord will deliver him in the evil day.
Francis Patrick Kenrick
The text has but one term in this place. We know of no circumstance in the life of David, to •which it may be specially referred. The fathers explain this psalm of Christ, who mmself applied to Judas a remarkable passage of it. The opening verse resembles the words of Christ: "Blessed is the man who shall not be scandalized in Me." Matt. xi. 6.
