142.1 Psalmus David. Psalmus iste septimus pœnitentialum, qui ideo sunt septem, ut eodem numero quo peccavimus, peccata diluamus. CAS. Sicut enim in hebdomada mundi hujus peccamus, ita hoc numero psalmorum remedium pœnitentiæ peccatis opponitur. In quibus psalmis talis est forma, quia a lacrymis incipitur, et in gaudio finis est, ne quis de venia desperet. AUG. Sicut Absalom David, sic Judas Christum, falsi fratres corpus ejus; vel illiciti motus et operatio. Domine, exaudi, etc. CAS.

Monet ad pœnitentiam, et orationem, ad orandum. In persona totius Christi dicit: O Domine, etc. In veritate tua. CAS. Non est hoc contra humilitatem, quæ petebat audiri: sed veritas et justitia Dei est, ne cum rogante disceptet, ne eum qui se damnat judicet; unde subditur: et non intres, non petivit justitiam judicii.
