Psalms 17:15

As for me, I will behold your face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with your likeness.
Read Chapter 17

Augustine of Hippo

AD 430
14. "But I shall appear in Thy righteousness in Thy sight" (ver. 15 ). But I, Who have not appeared to them that, with their filthy and darkened heart, cannot see the light of wisdom, "I shall appear in Thy righteousness in Thy sight." "I shall be satiated, when Thy glory shall be manifested." And when they have been satiated with their uncleanness, that they could not know Me, I shall be satiated, when Thy glory shall be manifested, in them that know Me. In that verse indeed where it is said, "filled with swine's flesh," some copies have, "filled with children:" for from the ambiguity of the Greek a double interpretation has resulted. Now by "children" we understand works; and as by good children, good works, so by evil, evil.

Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation - 2 Peter 1:20
