Context of Psalms 36:11
9They drink their fill from the abundance of Your House. You give them drink from the river of Your delights. 10For with You is the fountain of life— in Your light we see light. Continue 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. 13There the evildoers lie fallen— thrown down, not able to rise!
