Haydock's commentary
Why. Hebrew, "How strong are the words of truth!" (Calmet)
Whereas. Protestants, "But what doth your arguing reprove?" What part of my discourse do you find erroneous? Septuagint, "But it seems the words of the man of truth are deceitful. Yet I do not beg from you (a word or) strength." (Haydock)
