[Greek or Hebrew] my soul trusteth in thee, I will retire my self under the shadow of thy wings, and so it being referred to Christ, betokeneth that Act, whereby we do betake our selves to him as to our Sanctuary, where we may be preserved in safety from the tempest of Gods displeasure, and so Psal. 2.12. when his wrath is kindled, yea but a little, [Greek or Hebrew] Blessed are all they that put their trust in him, or that retire themselves to him; upon which place Junius noteth, that that retiring unto God, which is affirmed to be the cause of our blessedness, is no other than sincere Faith, and what act of it, but this of affiance?
