- Quia hæc dicit Dominus ad me : Quiescam et considerabo in loco meo, sicut meridiana lux clara est, et sicut nubes roris in die messis.
- Septuagint (Swete)
- διότι οὕτως μοι εἶπεν Κύριος Ἀσφάλεια ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἐμῇ πόλει ὡς φῶς καύματος μεσημβρίας, καὶ ὡς νεφέλη δρόσου ἡμέρας ἀμήτου ἔσται.

Haydock's commentary
Place. God rules all with ease.
Harvest. The allies shall comfort my people, (Calmet) or Sennacherib shall threaten ruin. (Haydock)
But I will frustrate his evil designs. His army shall perish unexpectedly, ver. 5. (Calmet)
The Egyptians had sent messengers to assure the Israelites that they would come to assist them: but the prophet informs them of their own ruin. (Worthington)
