8How precious is Your love, O God! The children of men find refuge in the shadow of Your wings. 9They drink their fill from the abundance of Your House. You give them drink from the river of Your delights. For with You is the fountain of life— in Your light we see light. 11Continue Your lovingkindness to those who know You, and Your justice to the upright in heart. 12May the foot of pride never tread on me, nor the hand of the wicked drive me away.

Commentaries on Psalms 36:10
