Ps 13:7 · Douay-Rheims
“Who shall give out of Sion the salvation of Israel? when the Lord shall have turned away the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice and Israel shall be glad.”

Augustine of Hippo Patristic
A.D. 354–430
“"Who will give salvation to Israel out of Sion?" (ver. 7). Who but He whose humiliation ye have despised? is understood. For He will come in glory to the judgment of the quick and the dead, and the kingdom of the just: that, forasmuch as in that humble coming "blindness hath happened in part unto Israel, that the fulness of the Gentiles might enter in," in that other should happen what follows, "and so all Israel should be saved." For the Apostle too takes that testimony of Isaiah, where it is said, "There shall come out of Sion He who shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:" for the Jews, as it is here, "Who shall give salvation to Israel out of Sion?" "When the Lord shall turn away the captivity of His people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad." It is a repetition, as is usual: for I suppose, "Israel shall be glad," is the same as, "Jacob shall rejoice."”

“All the ancients expected this. Gen. 49: "The scepter shall not be taken from Judah," etc. But this was expected from Zion, that is, from the Jews: Jn. 4: "Salvation is from the Jews." But when? The answer: we shall have this "when the Lord shall have turned away the captivity of his people," who are in the captivity of sin and the prison of Hell: Is. 49: "Indeed, the captive shall be taken from the strong, and what was seized by the mighty shall be rescued." "And then let Jacob be glad," that is, the people of God inwardly; "and let Israel rejoice" outwardly.”
