Haydock's commentary
Hand, which has not been defiled with any injustice. (Menochius)
When. Hebrew, "and my prayer was pure." I never neglected this sacred duty, (chap. i. 5.) as my friends accuse me, chap. xv. 4. (Haydock)
They continued in their false accusation: so he repeats the same true answer. (Worthington)
