A few different translations of Psalm 146:9 and they all point in the same direction. That, “there is no peace unto the wicked” and that the Eternal Almighty has each and every means at His disposal to bring about this verse. As in all scripture the verse has a contrast and that would be, “there is peace unto the just”.
Psalm 146:9 ….but the way of the wicked he twisteth.
…….but he frustrates the ways of the wicked.
…….but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin.
…….But he keeps wicked people from reaching their goal.
…….And the way of the wicked He turneth upside down.
There is disappointment and abject misery in sin.The sinner finds themselves pursued by evil and wrath. As much as they try to "cover themselves" with religion they cannot rest.
In contrast the just are, "pursued by goodness and mercy all the days of their life". Psalm 23:6 KJV The words "will follow" do not give the true sense and power that the Hebrew conveys.
