Salmos 31:20

Psalms 31:20. Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence Or, as in the secret of thy presence: either, 1st, As if they were in thy presence- chamber, where thine own eye and hand guard them from all the assaults of their enemies; called his secret, partly because the greatest part of the world are strangers to God and his presence: and partly because it is a safe and secure place, such as secret and unknown places are. Or, 2d, As if they were in the secret of God’s tabernacle, as it is called, Psalms 27:5, the place of God’s special presence, where none might enter save the high- priest. Or, 3d, With thy secret favour and providence, which works mightily, yet secretly, for thy people, and saves them by hidden and unknown methods. From the pride of man From their vain-glorious boasting and threats, and from their bold and insolent attempts. In a pavilion Or, as in thy pavilion, or tabernacle. From the strife of tongues From contentious and slandering tongues.
