85:1
Worthington
David. He might compose this psalm under any affliction, though prayer is always necessary (Berthier) for any person. (Worthington)
St. Augustine
Jesus Christ prays during his passion, and foretells his resurrection, and the vocation of the Gentiles. (St. Augustine)
Calmet
Needy. Hebrew, "mild or afflicted." Humility is requisite to pray well, as those who think themselves rich, ask not with fervour. (Calmet)
St. Augustine
God "inclines his ear if thou dost not lift up thy neck." (St. Augustine)
85:2
Haydock
I am holy. I am by my office and profession dedicated to thy service, (Challoner) as a Levite, (Calmet) or a member of the true Church. (Haydock)
Du Hamel
He may also speak in the person of Christ, who prays for us and in us. (Du Hamel)
Calmet
Syriac and Arabic read, "thou art good." (Calmet)
Worthington
Our necessities, firm purposes of leading a virtuous life, and confidence in God, move him to shew mercy. (Worthington)
85:4
Worthington
Soul. I ardently desire to serve in thy temple, Jeremias 22:27. A holy importunity, (Luke 18:2.; Tertullian, Apol. 39.; Calmet) and fervour in prayer, (Haydock) with perseverance, attention, and a sense of God's infinite perfections, are requisite. (Worthington)
85:7
Haydock
Heard me. This gives me confidence that thou wilt do it again. (Haydock)
Calmet
Thou art not like senseless idols. (Calmet)
85:8
Haydock
Gods, which have been set up by men; or among angels, etc., (Calmet) capable of working miracles by an independent power. (Haydock)
85:9
Calmet
Name. This was partly verified after the captivity, and fully when the gospel was preached. (Calmet)
Worthington
The Gentiles came by faith, and glorified God by good works, Matthew 5:17. (Worthington)
85:10
Alone. Vatican Septuagint, Arabic, etc., add, "the great." (Calmet) (Acts 17:24.
85:11
Truth. Let me see the justice of thy conduct in suffering the wicked to prosper, (Psalm 72:17.) or let me invariably observe thy holy law, which alone can give me true content.
Calmet
Rejoice. Hebrew, as we read at present, "likewise fear," (Calmet) "unite," (Montanus) or "let my heart be one," solitary, disengaged from all, unicum, (St. Jerome) "to fear," etc. (Calmet)
Berthier
This sense is very good. But yached, means also rejoice. (Berthier)
Du Hamel
Our joy must be mixed with fear. (Du Hamel)
85:13
Berthier
Hell of the damned, (Worthington) according to the Fathers: or out of captivity and dangers. (Berthier)
Menochius
If it be understood of Christ, it must refer to limbo. (Bellarmine) (Menochius)
Haydock
It seems equivalent to the lower pit, Psalm 87:7. (Haydock)
Calmet
The Jews admit seven regions in hell, (Genebrard) and our theologians four: 1. Of the damned; 2. of unbaptized infants; 3. of purgatory; and 4. of the saints in Abraham's bosom. St. Augustine mentions the first and last here: but he speaks clearly of purgatory in other places. (De Gen. contra Manch. 2:17. in Psalm vi.) (Calmet)
Haydock
David was rescued from the most imminent dangers, and Christ came out of limbo, (Psalm 15:10.; Du Hamel) by his own power. (Haydock)
85:14
Calmet
Eyes. The Babylonians oppress us most unjustly. (Calmet)
85:15
Berthier
True. This title is also applied to Christ, who, of course, is God:; since every man is liable to mistake, Romans 3:4., and Apocalypse 19:1. God authorized Moses and the prophets to address Him, as the psalmist does, Exodus 34:6., and Joel 2:13. (Berthier)
85:16
Menochius
Command. Hebrew, "strength," (Haydock) to resist the enemy. (Menochius)
Calmet
Order me as thou pleasest: I am entirely devoted to thee from my very birth, Psalm 115:16. Restore the throne of David. (Calmet)
Worthington
The prophets frequently thus turn to the Church, the kingdom of the Messias, who was born of the handmaid of the Lord. (Worthington)
85:17
Haydock
Good. Mark me for thy slave, (Calmet) which will be the highest honour. (Haydock)
St. Athanasius
Give me such a sign as the angel did when he was going to destroy the first-born of Egypt. (St. Athanasius)
Berthier
By some prodigy convince our oppressors that there is a God. (Calmet) (Berthier)
Ovid
The resurrection, prefigured by Jonas, was the great proof of Christ and his Church; and this serves either for the conversion or for the condemnation of mankind. See St. Augustine. (Worthington) Quod precor eveniet, sunt certa oracula vatum, Nam Deus optanti prospera signa dedit. (Ovid, 2 de Ponto 1.)
Du Hamel
Comforted. St. Cyprian was in sorrow while suffering, but was comforted when crowned. "All the martyrs, with Christ, pray for us." (St. Augustine) (Du Hamel)
85:2
I am holy.... I am by my office and profession dedicated to thy service.
85:1
A forme of prayer for king Dauid, and for anie faithful person.
There be sundrie iust causes which moue God to heare our prayers:
first our necessitie requireth Gods helpe
85:2
Secondly because we professe, and promise to lead a holie life.
Thirdly, because we trust and hope in God.
85:3
Fourtly, because we perseuere in prayer.
85:4
Fiftly, if we pray with attention of mind.
85:5
Sixtly because God of his owne nature is benigne, readie to bestow benefites.
Seuently, he is meeke to remitte offences,
Eightly, he is merciful to mitigate the punishment, to those that make recourse vnto him.
For these causes we pray as foloweth.

VVherby al enimies are confounded, either to their conuersion, or to eternal damnation. See 6. Augustin.

St Augustine of Hippo † AD 430 The Confessions 11.2
3. O Lord my God, hear my prayer, and let Thy mercy regard my longing, since it bums not for myself alone, but because it desires to benefit brotherly charity; and Thou seest into my heart, that so it is.

… I abstract my mind from the multiplicity of things, and gather it up into the One God, the inseparable Trinity, that so I may see something which I may say of it, think ye that in this “body which presseth down the soul,” I shall be able to say (in order that I may speak to you something worthy of the subject), “O Lord, I have lifted up my soul unto Thee.”

… 6 ). Great earnestness of him who prays! That is, let not my prayer go out of Thine ears, fix it then in Thine ears. How did he travail that he might fix his prayer in the ears of God? Let God answer and say to us; Wouldest thou that I fix thy prayer in My ears? Fix My law in thy heart; “and attend to the voice of my prayer.”

St Athanasius of Alexandria † AD 373 Against the Arians. (Orationes contra Arianos IV.) 1.13
57. Though surely amid such speculations, they will be moved by the sacred poet, saying, ‘Who is he among the gods that shall be like unto the Lord ,’ and, ‘Among the gods there is none like unto Thee, O Lord
St Athanasius of Alexandria † AD 373 Against the Arians. (Orationes contra Arianos IV.) 3.25
… And yet no one of these is Word or Wisdom or Only-begotten Son or Image; nor did any one of them make bold to say, ‘I and the Father are One,’ or, ‘I in the Father, and the Father in Me ;’ but it is said of all of them, ‘Who is like unto Thee among the gods, O Lord? and who shall be likened to the Lord among the sons of Gods
St Athanasius of Alexandria † AD 373 Synodal Letter to the Bishops of Africa. (Ad Afros Epistola Synodica.) 7
… But a mutable thing cannot be like God who is truly unchangeable, any more than what is created can be like its creator. This is why, with regard to us, the holy man said, ‘Lord, who shall be likened unto thee ,’ and ‘who among the gods is like unto thee, Lord
St John Chrysostom † AD 407 The Homilies of St. John Chrysostom 37
… and it was a great point for the present, that even so much should be received among the multitude. And so too, the Old Testament uses in the same way to correct the souls of the erring, by putting together in a way of comparison things that cannot be compared; as when it saith, “Among the gods there is none like unto Thee, O Lord:”

St John Chrysostom † AD 407 Homilies on Philippians 6
He who is not of that nature is not God. For He is everywhere called great in Scripture; “Great is the Lord, and highly to be praised.” ( Ps. xlviii. 1 .) This is said of the Son also, for it always calls Him Lord. “Thou art great, and doest wondrous things. Thou art God alone.” (
St Augustine of Hippo † AD 430 On the Holy Trinity 5.8
… So the Father is great, the Son great, and the Holy Spirit great; yet not three greats, but one great. For it is not written of the Father alone, as they perversely suppose, but of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, “Thou art great: Thou art God alone.”

St Augustine of Hippo † AD 430 A Treatise on Nature and Grace 36
… effect and Himself show His own way in us, to whom it is said, “Show us Thy mercy, O Lord;” and Himself bestow on us the pathway of safety that we may walk therein, to whom the prayer is offered, “And grant us Thy salvation;” and Himself lead us in the self-same way, to whom again it is said, “Guide me, O Lord, in Thy way, and in Thy truth will I walk;”
St Augustine of Hippo † AD 430 Lectures or Tractates on the Gospel According to St. John 45.13
… and let not those who have understood vaunt themselves as swifter at the expense of the slower, lest in their vaunting they turn out of the track, and the slower more easily attain the goal. But let all of us be guided by Him to whom we say, “Lead me, O Lord, in Thy way, and I will walk in Thy truth.”
St Augustine of Hippo † AD 430 Lectures or Tractates on the Gospel According to St. John 96.4
… If, then, you grow in the love which the Holy Spirit spreads abroad in your hearts, “He will teach you all truth;” or, as other codices have it, “He will guide you in all truth:” as it is said, “Lead me in Thy way, O Lord, and I will walk in Thy truth.”
St Augustine of Hippo † AD 430 Expositions on the Book of Psalms 71.20

… Now, if the title of Father may be claimed for (Marcion’s) sterile god, how much more for the Creator? To none other than Him is it suitable, who is also “the Father of mercies,” and (in the prophets) has been described as “full of compassion, and gracious, and plenteous in mercy.”
St Gregory of Nyssa † AD 395 Answer to Eunomius' Second Book 1
… Now a virtuous man, if carried, even involuntarily, beyond the limits of truth, is overwhelmed with shame. Yet Eunomius thinks it no shame to God that He should seem to give a false colour to things by their appellations. Not such is the testimony of the Scriptures to the Divine nature. “God is long-suffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth,” says David
St Augustine of Hippo † AD 430 The Confessions 1.18

… fear Him in that He is right. As the meek, He said, “I held my peace;” but as the just, He said, “Shall I always be silent?” “The Lord is merciful and pitiful.” So He is, certainly. Add yet further, “Long-suffering;” add yet further, “And very pitiful:” but fear what comes last, “And true.”

… For he said not, “prophecy is not useful to them unbelieving,” but, “is not for a sign,” as the tongue,” i.e., a mere sign without profit: nor is the tongue any way useful to believers; for its only work is to astonish and to confound; the word “sign” being one of those which may be taken two ways: as when he saith, “show me a sign,” (

85:9
… Salvation will be announced to all nations (Is. 49:6, 8; 42:6). The same is affirmed in the Psalms: all peoples will turn toward God (Ps. 21:28; 85:9). In the New Testament the universality of the salvific will is clearly affirmed by St. Paul: «Deus omnes homines vult salvos fieri et ad agnitionem veritatis venire. …
