Psalms 31:19

Thy goodness, which thou hast laid up, &c.— Which thou treasurest up for those who fear thee; which thou providest for those who make thee their refuge, before the sons of men. Mudge and Green. The next verse should be rendered also in the present tense, Thou hidest them, thou keepest them. The phrase, In the secret of thy presence, refers to the sanctuary, the peculiar place of God's residence. "Those who trust in him shall be as safe in his protection, as if they were immediately lodged in the sanctuary."
