Psalm 30:9 Douay-Rheims

And thou hast not shut me up in the hands of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a spacious place.

Augustine of Hippo

A.D. 354–430 Patristic

"And hast not shut me up into the hands of the enemy" [Psalm 31:8]. And hast not shut me up, that I should have no opening for recovering unto liberty, and be given over for ever into the power of the devil, ensnaring me with the desire of this life, and terrifying me with death. "You have set my feet in a large room." The resurrection of my Lord being known, and my own being promised me, my love, having been brought out of the straits of fear, walks abroad in continuance, into the expanse of liberty.
