With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
The first verse states two distinct truths, not one repeated twice as some wrongly suppose. He who dwells in God's secret place and abides under His shadow, these are two separate ideas working together, each adding weight to the promise of safety.

Commenting on Psalm 91:1-16
With long life will I satisfy him. The man described in this Psalm fills out the measure of his days, and whether he dies young or old he is quite satisfied with life, and is content to leave it. He shall rise from life's banquet as a man who has had enough, and would not have more even if he could. And shew him my salvation.
Those who make the Most High their habitation, dwelling in Him as their home, conversing with Him, delighting in Him, find themselves welcome to Him without hindrance or molestation from conscience or law. In His house there is room enough and shelter enough for all; He is firm and faithful, and in Him we shall be kept in perfect peace.
