“Impius, cum in profundum venerit peccatorum, contemnit ; sed sequitur eum ignominia et opprobrium.”
“When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with ignominy reproach.”
“With a wicked man comes contempt as well, and shame is accompanied by disgrace.”
“When wickedness comes, contempt also comes, and with shame comes disgrace.”
“When the wicked cometh, there cometh also contempt, And with ignominy cometh reproach.”
Contemneth both God and man, Luke xviii. 4. Hebrew, “is contemned” in his turn. (Calmet) — He is like a man abandoned by the physician. (Op. Imp. in Matt. Hom. 40.)
2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
