Psalms 34:16. The face of the LORD is against them that do evil,-

You know what we mean when we say, "I set my face against it." So God sets his face against the wicked. Note how near both the righteous and the wicked are to an observing God. In the first case, his eyes are upon the righteous; in the second, his face "is against them that do evil," -

Psalms 34:16. To cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.

He will stamp them out as men do with fire. He will not even let them be remembered; he will take means to ensure that their unholy example shall die with them.
