Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy righteousness.
Ver. 27. Add iniquity unto their iniquity] Punish one sin with another (by giving them up to a reprobate sense, to an incurable hardness), and plague them soundly for their sin. The same Hebrew word signifieth both sin and punishment; these two are tied together with chains of adamant.
And let them not come into thy righteousness] i.e. Hold them not righteous, nor bestow upon them thy crown of righteousness.
