Context of Psalms 36:11

9For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light. 10Continue thy loving-kindness unto them that know thee, and thy righteousness to the upright in heart; Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked drive me away. 12There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and are not able to rise.
