Haydock's commentary
Thee. This would not be difficult, (Tirinus) if thy presumption did not prove an obstacle. Thou makest small account of those comforts or of our advice, trusting in thy own justice. (Calmet)
Septuagint, "Thou hast been chastised little, considering thy sins. Thou hast spoken with excessive insolence."
