Psalm 61:4

4 Yo habitaré en tu tabernáculo para siempre; estaré seguro en el escondedero de tus alas.

Psalm 61:4 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 61:4

I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever
Under the protection of the Lord, as in a shepherd's tent, or as in one belonging to a general of an army, where are fulness and safety; (See Gill on Psalms 27:5); or else the tabernacle of the congregation is meant; the house of God, the place of divine and public worship, where he desired and determined always to continue, ( Psalms 23:6 ) ; or else the tabernacle which was prefigured by that below, where he knew he should dwell to all eternity. Kimchi, by "for ever", understands a long time; and Jarchi explains it both of this world and of the world to come; which is true, understanding the tabernacle of the church below, and the church above;

I will trust in the covert of thy wings.
Or, "in" or "into the secret of thy wings" ^F26; this he determined to make his refuge for the present time, and while in this world; (See Gill on Psalms 57:1).

Selah; on this word, (See Gill on Psalms 3:2).

Psalm 61:4 In-Context

2 Desde el cabo de la tierra clamaré a ti, cuando mi corazón desmayare; a la peña más alta que me conduzcas,

3 porque tú has sido mi refugio, mi torre de fortaleza delante del enemigo.

4 Yo habitaré en tu tabernáculo para siempre; estaré seguro en el escondedero de tus alas.

5 Porque tú, oh Dios, has oído mis votos, has dado heredad a los que temen tu Nombre.

6 Días sobre días añadirás al Rey; sus años serán de generación a generación.
