Psalm 31:7 Douay-Rheims

Thou art my refuge from the trouble which hath encompassed me: my joy, deliver me from them that surround me.

Augustine of Hippo

A.D. 354–430 Patristic

"You are my refuge from the pressures, which have compassed me about:" You are my refuge from the pressure of my sins, which has compassed my heart. "O Thou, my Rejoicing, deliver me from them that compass me about" [Psalm 32:7]: in You is my joy: deliver me from the sorrow which my sins bring upon me.
