What does the Bible say about God's judgment against enemies?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible shows that God actively judges the enemies of His people and will not remain silent in the face of rebellion.

The Scriptures reveal God's commitment to avenging His cause and judging those who oppose Him. In Psalm 83, the psalmist implores God not to remain silent while His enemies conspire against His people. The cry for God to act stems from the assurance of His sovereignty and past deeds where He has decisively judged oppressors like the Midianites and Sisera. The Biblical narrative consistently demonstrates that God sees and knows His faithful ones, recognizing their plight and responding to their cries for help.

The psalm highlights that God is not indifferent to the struggles of His people; rather, He is intimately aware of their suffering, and He is called upon to display His power against those who would cut off Israel from being a nation. As the psalm concludes, it emphasizes that God's ultimate purpose is glorification of His name above all the earth, affirming His position as the Most High and instilling in humanity a recognition of His sovereignty.
