The person who hid Martin Luther during his translation of The Bible was Prince Frederick the Wise of Saxony. After Luther was declared an outlaw following the Diet of Worms in 1521, Frederick provided him refuge at Wartburg Castle. During this time, Luther translated the New Testament into German, making it more accessible to the general public. Frederick's protection was crucial for Luther's safety and the success of his translation efforts.
