The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine): A maxilla enim ascendunt usque ad cælum, et Dominus exauditor non delectabitur in illis.
Septuagint (Swete): The Greek has no line about the tears going up from the cheek to heaven. This is a Latin addition; the Greek moves straight on to 'he that serves with goodwill' (Douay 35:20).

Haydock's commentary

For, &c., is not in Greek. God will protect the defenceless. (Haydock)
