And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room.

Verse 8 is found in chapter 31 of Psalms. Psalm 31 combines trust, lament, and personal surrender in an extended prayer. God is rock, fortress, and refuge, while the psalmist describes illness, social rejection, and persecution. The surrender of his spirit expresses radical trust in divine hands. Toward the end, the individual experience becomes communal teaching: loving the Lord and taking courage means remaining firm because God preserves those who wait for him.

Ich freue mich und bin fröhlich über deine Güte, daß du mein Elend ansiehst und erkennst meine Seele in der Not
Y no me encerraste en mano del enemigo; Hiciste estar mis pies en anchura.
No me has entregado en manos del enemigo; has puesto mis pies en un lugar espacioso.
Et tu ne me livreras pas aux mains de l'ennemi, Tu mettras mes pieds au large.
E non mi avrai messo in mano del nemico; Ed avrai fatto star ritti i miei piedi al largo
E não me entregaste nas mãos do inimigo; puseste os meus pés num lugar espaçoso.
你未曾把我交在仇敵手裏, 你使我的腳站在寬闊的地方。
