Psalms 31:8

You have not shut me up (handed me over) to the enemy,
but set my feet in a spacious place (wide open spaces, giving me freedom).
[The word for "shut up" is used, among other things, to describe how God "shuts" the door to the ark, see Gen. 7:16. If we apply this psalm from a messianic perspective, it can describe how the grave and death could not hold Jesus, see Matt. 28:2; Acts 2:24!]
