Psalms 94:20-23

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public Domain

The destruction of the evil doers. There can be no fellowship between light and darkness—between God and evildoers, especially those who carry out their wicked purposes under the forms of law (Psalms 94:20), and go the length of condemning innocent blood (Psalms 94:21).

Such persons God, who defends the righteous (Psalms 94:22), will assuredly bring to utter destruction (Psalms 94:23).
