Gill's Notes on the Bible
Thou shall hide them in the secret of thy presence,.... That is, those that fear the Lord and trust in him; and therefore they are called his "hidden ones", Psalms 83:3; these the Lord preserves in times of trouble and danger, and when his indignation is out against others; and so the Targum is, "in the time of thine anger"; see Isaiah 26:20; the presence of God is their protection, he himself is a wall of fire round about them, his favour compasses them as a shield, and they are kept as in a garrison by his power; see Psalms 91:1; and that "from the pride of man", which otherwise would at once oppress, bear them down, and destroy them, Psalms 124:1;
thou shall keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues; which areas a sharp sword, and from whence proceed devouring words, such contradiction of sinners as Christ endured; not that the saints are kept free from the reproaches of men, from the lash of their tongues, but from being harmed by them; and sometimes, through the strivings and contentions of men with one another, they privately escape and are preserved, as the Apostle Paul was, Acts 23:9.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence - See the notes at Psalms 27:5. The phrase “secret of thy presence” means thy “secret presence.” The Hebrew is: “the secret of thy face;” and the idea is, that He would hide them, or withdraw them from public view, or from the view of their enemies, into the very place where He Himself dwelt, so that they would be before Him and near Him; so that His eye would be upon them, and that they would be certain of His protection. The language here is the same as in Psalms 27:5, except that the word “face” or “presence” is used here instead of the word “tabernacle.” The idea is the same.
From the pride of man - The Hebrew word here rendered “pride” - רכס rôkes - means properly “league” or “conspiracy;” then, “snares” or “plots.” It occurs nowhere else in the Scriptures, though the corresponding verb - רכס râkas - occurs twice, meaning to “bind on” or “to,” Exodus 28:28; Exodus 39:21. The word here means “league” or “conspiracy,” and the idea is, that when the wicked form a conspiracy, or enter into a league against the righteous, God will take them, as it were, into His own immediate presence, and will protect them.
Thou shalt keep them secretly - Thou wilt “hide” them as with Thyself.
In a pavilion - In Thy tent, or dwelling-place. See the notes at Psalms 27:5.
From the strife of tongues - Slander; reproach; calumny. This does not mean the strife of tongues among themselves, or their contentions with each other, but the united clamors of the whole against Himself. God would guard the righteous from their reproaches, or their efforts to ruin them by slander. Compare Psalms 37:5-6.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Psalms 31:20. Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence — בסתר פניך besether paneycha, "With the covering of thy countenance." Their life shall be so hidden with Christ in God, that their enemies shall not be able to find them out. To such a hiding-place Satan himself dare not approach. There the pride of man cannot come.
Thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion — Thou shalt put them in the innermost part of thy tent. This implies that they shall have much communion and union with God; that they shall be transformed into his likeness, and have his highest approbation.
