The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment.
The robbery of (i:e., perpetrated by) the wicked shall destroy them, [or else shall make them to fear: from guwr (H1481 ) (Gejer): Maurer takes it from gaarar (H1641 ), as in Habakkuk 1:15 , shall sweep them away as fish gathered in a net; but Kimchi, in the sense shall destroy them as with a saw]; because they refuse to do judgment. They sin not through ignorance or precipitancy, but willfully through wantonness. Doing justice toward our neighbour is one test of our sincerity of faith toward God.
