“"The eyes of the Lord keep knowledge," etc. The divine inspection always keeps in the Church the knowledge of the truth which it taught; the words of heretics, indeed all speech contrary to piety and justice, because it is not preserved by the ruling Lord, is subverted along with its author.”
Bede, 8th c. — Commentary on Proverbs

12The eyes of the LORD preserve knowledge, and he overthroweth the words of the transgressor.
