The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Eligentur, et dealbabuntur, et quasi ignis probabuntur multi : et impie agent impii, neque intelligent omnes impii : porro docti intelligent.
Septuagint (Swete)
ἐκλεγῶσιν καὶ ἐκλευκανθῶσιν καὶ πυρωθῶσιν πολλοί, καὶ ἀνομήσωσιν ἄνομοι· καὶ οὐ συνήσουσιν ἄνομοι, καὶ οἱ νοήμονες συνήσουσιν.
Hebrew (WLC)
יִ֠תְבָּֽרֲרוּ וְיִֽתְלַבְּנ֤וּ וְיִצָּֽרְפוּ֙ רַבִּ֔ים וְהִרְשִׁ֣יעוּ רְשָׁעִ֔ים וְלֹ֥א יָבִ֖ינוּ כָּל רְשָׁעִ֑ים וְהַמַּשְׂכִּלִ֖ים יָבִֽינוּ

Haydock's commentary

White, by persecution endured with patience, chap. xi. 35.

Learned. While the weak Jews will be scandalized at this treatment, the virtuous will reflect that suffering is a trial of God's servants, and a mark of predestination.

From Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary, 1859, in the transcription made by Todd Easton and kept online by John Paul Wohlschied at johnblood.gitlab.io/haydock.
