Haydock's commentary
The sorrow. Protestants, "his iniquity." Marginal note, "that is the punishment." (Haydock)
The children shall share in his punishment, (Calmet) when they have been partakers, or imitators of his injustice. (Haydock)
Know his offence, and whether there be a God (Calmet) and Providence. (Menochius)
