(A)Your judgments are a great deep;
O Lord, You preserve man and beast.

How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God!
Therefore the children of men (B)put their trust under the shadow of Your wings.
(C)They are abundantly satisfied with the fullness of Your house,
And You give them drink from (D)the river of Your pleasures.
(E)For with You is the fountain of life;
(F)In Your light we see light.

10 Oh, continue Your lovingkindness to those who know You,
And Your righteousness to the upright in heart.
