Commentary for Psalms 118:8
ט֗וֹב לַחֲס֥וֹת בַּיהוָ֑ה מִ֝בְּטֹ֗חַ בָּאָדָֽם׃
It is better to take refuge in the LORD Than to trust in man.
Rashi on Psalms
It is better to take shelter in the Lord Heb. לחסות. This shelter (חסיון) is only an expression of the shelter of a shadow, a small thing.

Rashi on Psalms
Trust (מבטח) is a stout and strong support. Nevertheless, to take shelter in the Lord is better than the promises of human beings.
