A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882]
enter . . . chambers--When God is about to take vengeance on the ungodly, the saints shall be shut in by Him in a place of safety, as Noah and his family were in the days of the flood (Gen 7:16), and as Israel was commanded not to go out of doors on the night of the slaying of the Egyptian first-born (Exo 12:22-23; Psa 31:20; Psa 83:3). The saints are calmly and confidently to await the issue (Exo 14:13-14).

13 And Moses [04872] said [0559] unto the people [05971], Fear [03372] ye not, stand still [03320], and see [07200] the salvation [03444] of the LORD [03068], which he will shew [06213] to you to day [03117]: for the Egyptians [04714] whom ye have seen [07200] to day [03117], ye shall see [07200] them again [03254] no more for [05704] ever [05769].
14 The LORD [03068] shall fight [03898] for you, and ye shall hold your peace [02790].
3 They have taken crafty [06191] counsel [05475] against thy people [05971], and consulted [03289] against thy hidden ones [06845].
20 Thou shalt hide [05641] them in the secret [05643] of thy presence [06440] from the pride [07407] of man [0376]: thou shalt keep them secretly [06845] in a pavilion [05521] from the strife [07379] of tongues [03956].
22 And ye shall take [03947] a bunch [092] of hyssop [0231], and dip [02881] it in the blood [01818] that is in the bason [05592], and strike [05060] the lintel [04947] and the two [08147] side posts [04201] with the blood [01818] that is in the bason [05592]; and none [0376] of you shall go out [03318] at the door [06607] of his house [01004] until the morning [01242].
23 For the LORD [03068] will pass through [05674] to smite [05062] the Egyptians [04714]; and when he seeth [07200] the blood [01818] upon the lintel [04947], and on the two [08147] side posts [04201], the LORD [03068] will pass over [06452] the door [06607], and will not suffer [05414] the destroyer [07843] to come [0935] in unto your houses [01004] to smite [05062] you.
16 And they that went in [0935], went in [0935] male [02145] and female [05347] of all flesh [01320], as God [0430] had commanded [06680] him: and the LORD [03068] shut him in [05462].
15 And when ye spread forth [06566] your hands [03709], I will hide [05956] mine eyes [05869] from you: yea, when ye make many [07235] prayers [08605], I will not hear [08085]: your hands [03027] are full [04390] of blood [01818].
5 The earth [0776] also is defiled [02610] under the inhabitants [03427] thereof; because they have transgressed [05674] the laws [08451], changed [02498] the ordinance [02706], broken [06565] the everlasting [05769] covenant [01285].
3 For, behold, the LORD [03068] cometh forth [03318] out of his place [04725], and will come down [03381], and tread [01869] upon the high places [01116] of the earth [0776].
7 For a small [06996] moment [07281] have I forsaken [05800] thee; but with great [01419] mercies [07356] will I gather [06908] thee.
8 In a little [08241] wrath [07110] I hid [05641] my face [06440] from thee for a moment [07281]; but with everlasting [05769] kindness [02617] will I have mercy [07355] on thee, saith [0559] the LORD [03068] thy Redeemer [01350].
6 And in my prosperity [07959] I said [0559], I shall never [05769] be moved [04131].
7 For a small [06996] moment [07281] have I forsaken [05800] thee; but with great [01419] mercies [07356] will I gather [06908] thee.
8 In a little [08241] wrath [07110] I hid [05641] my face [06440] from thee for a moment [07281]; but with everlasting [05769] kindness [02617] will I have mercy [07355] on thee, saith [0559] the LORD [03068] thy Redeemer [01350].
24 Therefore thus saith [0559] the Lord [0136] GOD [03069] of hosts [06635], O my people [05971] that dwellest [03427] in Zion [06726], be not afraid [03372] of the Assyrian [0804]: he shall smite [05221] thee with a rod [07626], and shall lift up [05375] his staff [04294] against thee, after the manner [01870] of Egypt [04714].
25 For yet a very [04213] little while [04592], and the indignation [02195] shall cease [03615], and mine anger [0639] in their destruction [08399].
21 Blessed [01288] be the LORD [03068]: for he hath shewed me his marvellous [06381] kindness [02617] in a strong [04692] city [05892].
5 For in the time [03117] of trouble [07451] he shall hide [06845] me in his pavilion [05520]: in the secret [05643] of his tabernacle [0168] shall he hide [05641] me; he shall set me up [07311] upon a rock [06697].
6 But [1161] thou [4771], when [3752] thou prayest [4336], enter [1525] into [1519] thy [4675] closet [5009], and [2532] when thou hast shut [2808] thy [4675] door [2374], pray [4336] to thy [4675] Father [3962] which [3588] is in [1722] secret [2927]; and [2532] thy [4675] Father [3962] which [3588] seeth [991] in [1722] secret [2927] shall reward [591] thee [4671] openly [1722] [5318].
19 And he said [0559], Behold, I will make thee know [03045] what shall be in the last end [0319] of the indignation [02195]: for at the time appointed [04150] the end [07093] shall be.
4 When the Lord [0136] shall have washed away [07364] the filth [06675] of the daughters [01323] of Zion [06726], and shall have purged [01740] the blood [01818] of Jerusalem [03389] from the midst [07130] thereof by the spirit [07307] of judgment [04941], and by the spirit [07307] of burning [01197].
