Psalms 34:21
Psalms 34:21
Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
The judgment of the wicked is certain. This verse reveals that the consequences of evil are severe, and those who persist in rejecting God will face destruction. The wicked may seem to prosper for a time, but their end will be desolation. Those who hate the righteous and oppose God's ways will not escape His judgment. This verse serves as a sobering reminder that God’s justice will ultimately prevail, and that the actions of the wicked will not go unnoticed. However, this is also a call for believers to live with integrity and faithfulness, knowing that God will vindicate them. The righteous may face opposition in this life, but God promises to deliver them from the hands of the wicked. This verse is both a warning to the wicked and an encouragement to the righteous. As we face trials, we can rest assured that God will make things right in the end, and those who endure in faith will be rewarded.

Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.

As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one.
Amos 5:15
Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate.
1 Peter 4:15
Let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.
