Commentary on Psalm 34:16 (Summary)

Psalm 34:16 (ESV)

16 The face of the LORD is against those who do evil, to cut off the memory of them from the earth.

The word face can also be rendered wrath. God sees the righteous, but he also sees the evildoers. Their day of reckoning will come, so that they will not even be remembered on earth.
