Augustine of Hippo, on Ps 117:8

“It is good to confide in the Lord, rather than to have confidence in man.”

“But, when my enemies have been brought to contempt, let not my friend present himself unto me as a good man, so as to bid me repose my hope in himself: for "It is better to trust in the Lord, than to put any confidence in man."”
