Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment.
Yea, truth faileth - is not to be found.
He that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey - be that will not fall in with the prevailing iniquity exposes himself as a prey to the wicked (Psalms 10:8-9).
The Lord saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment. The iniquity of Israel, so desperate as to require nothing short of Yahweh's interposition to mend it, typifies the same necessity for a Divine Mediator existing in the deep corruption of man. Israel, the model nation was chosen to illustrate this awful fact.
