Opposing The Righteous

Transmigra in montes sicut passer. Vult iustum ad desertum migrare, ut ibi eum facilius elidat. Ut sagittent in obscuro rectos corde. Numquam enim in luce pugnant, sed semper in tenebris. Quapropter iustus aiebat: Lucerna pedibus meis verbum tuum, Domine. Iustus autem fecit? Id est, nihil dignum fecit, ut mereatur interfici.  Sanctus Hieronymous, Commentarioli Psalms, Psalm X

Flee to the mountains like a sparrow. 1 He wishes that the righteous man go to the wilds, that there he might more easily destroy him. That they shoot in shadows at the righteous in heart. 2 For never in the light do they fight, but always in the darkness. For which reason the righteous man said, 'Your word is a light for my feet, O Lord.' 3 What has the righteous man done? 4 That is, he has done nothing that he deserve to be slain. Saint Jerome, Commentarioli on the Psalms, Psalm 10 1 Ps 10.2 2 Ps 10.3 3 Ps 118.105 4 Ps 10.4
