Psalms 140:13

Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name -Unto thee. (1) they will have occasion to do it; (2) they will be disposed to do it. They will not be unmindful of the favors conferred upon them; it will be a characteristic of them that they “will” be thankful. The upright shall dwell in thy presence -They shall be under thy protection; they shall be admitted to thy favor; they shall dwell in thy dwelling-place. (1) On earth they shall enjoy his favor - “as if” they abode with God. (2) in heaven they will be permitted to dwell with him forever. The general idea of the psalm is, that the poor, the persecuted, the afflicted, if righteous, shall enjoy the favor and protection of God.
