Œuvres Augustin d'Hippone (354-430) Enarrationes in psalmos (CCEL) Expositions on the Book of Psalms
Psalm XXXI.

23.

"I said in my ecstasy" 1 (ver. 22). Whence that people again speaking saith, I said in my fear, when the heathen were raging horribly against me. "I have been cast forth from the sight of Thine eyes." For if Thou hadst regard to me, Thou wouldest not suffer me to endure these things. "Therefore Thou heardest, O Lord, the voice of my prayer, when I cried unto Thee." Therefore putting a limit to correction, and showing that I have part in Thy care, Thou heardest, O Lord, the voice of my prayer, when I raised it high 2 out of tribulation.


  1. [Elsewhere St. Augustin explains the word "ecstasy" as sometimes=transport, sometimes=panic. See his sermon on this Psalm, usually following this exposition.--C.] ↩
