Psalms 12:8 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 12:8
This verse describes a vicious cycle: the wicked freely strut when vileness is exalted among humanity. The Hebrew 'halak saviv' (walk all around) suggests unrestrained movement. When culture celebrates vice as virtue, wickedness becomes unashamed and public. This anticipates Paul's description of those who not only practice sin but celebrate those who do (Romans 1:32). Reformed theology calls this the judicial hardening that follows persistent rebellion.
