Psalm 16:7
Douay-Rheims
Shew forth thy wonderful mercies; thou who savest them that trust in thee.
Athanasius of Alexandria
He teaches us that even if we are virtuous, we should trust not in ourselves but in God, and that we should pray to him that like the pupil of the eye he protect the mind—our soul's eye—from evil of the opposing powers.
