8You have plenty of food in your house, to give them all that they need. You give them water from your river, that makes them happy when they drink it. 9Yes, you are the one who gives us light and life. Continue to love those who serve you as your people. Let good, honest people receive your justice. 11Do not let proud people hurt me. Do not let evil people chase me away from home. 12Now I see that those wicked people have fallen down! They are lying there on the ground, and they cannot get up again!

- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 10O continue thy loving-kindness - Literally, "Draw out thy mercy." The allusion to the spring is still kept up.
