As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon Israel. As for such as turn aside (Job 23:11 ; Isaiah 30:11 ) unto their crooked ways - (Proverbs 2:15.) The revealed word is the Divine King's highway. A walk according to one's own lust is a fatal by-path (Malachi 2:8). So Israel's setting up of the golden calf (Deuteronomy 9:16). Such walks are called "THEIR crooked ways" х `aqalqalowtaam (H6128): the doubling of the radicals intensifies the signification, "their tortuous crookednesses"], because these are the devisings of the sinner's own corrupt heart (Proverbs 14:12).
The Lord shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity. As those of "crooked ways" have associated themselves in heart and conduct with evil-doers, so, in spite of their outward profession on which they trusted, they shall be associated with them in punishment. The Lord will make them to go with the open transgressors, giving them up to the unrestricted working of their own sin (cf. Psalms 26:9; Psalms 28:3). The change from the second person (Psalms 125:4) to the third expresses a turning away from, and putting to a distance, the godless hypocrites.
(But) peace (shall be) upon Israel - all her trails shall be over (Psalms 128:6). "Upon" the true "Israel," after the inconsistent bearers of the name shall have been removed. So "upon" the spiritual Israel (Galatians 6:16).
