The Pulpit Commentary on Psalms 94:23

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public domain

And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity. Most manifestly when he makes them fall into their own snare (Psalms 7:15; Psalms 35:8; Psalms 57:6; Psalms 141:9, Psalms 141:10), but really also whenever he punishes them for their sins. And shall cut them off; or, "destroy," "exterminate" them. In their own wickedness; or, "by their wickedness." The wicked man is often "hoist with his own petard." Yea, the Lord our God shall cut them off. The repetition, like that in Psalms 94:1, is emphatic, and solemnly confirms the entire section (Psalms 94:20-23).
