What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Jerome
He is near who justifies me: who will contradict me? Let us stand together. Who is my adversary? Let him come near to me. Behold, the Lord God is my helper: who is he that will condemn me? Behold, all of them shall wear out like a garment, the moth shall eat them up. LXX: He is near who justifies me: who is he that will judge me, stand up against me together? And who is he that will enter into judgment with me? Let him come near to me. Behold, the Lord is my helper, who shall afflict me? …
Thomas Aquinas
Third, he assigns the reason for this security from the power of the one who helps him: he is near that justifies me, namely, God. Who will contend with me, with words; let us stand together: set me beside you, O Lord, and let any man's hand fight against me (Job 17:3); who is my adversary, with deeds.
