Psalms 146:2

A church father on this verse
“I will praise the Lord in my life. See what it says: it exhorts itself, and it itself answers. What does it say? It says to me, Praise the Lord, O my soul: I myself answer, I will praise the Lord in my life. At present I cannot praise, I am weighed down by sins. As often as I open my lips in the praises of God, so oft…”
Jerome, 5th c. — Homily 55, on Psalm 145
