God stands up to open heaven’s court. He pronounces judgment on the judges. How long will you judges refuse to listen to the evidence? How long will you shower special favors on the wicked?  Give fair judgment to the poor man, the afflicted, the fatherless, the destitute.  Rescue the poor and helpless from the grasp of evil men.  But you are so foolish and so ignorant! Because you are in darkness, all the foundations of society are shaken to the core. (Psalm 82:1-5 TLB)

Stand up, O God, and judge the earth. For all of it belongs to you. All nations are in your hands. (Psalm 82:8 TLB)

All this is clear evidence of God’s righteous judgment. And so you will be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering. After all, it is only right for God to repay with affliction those who afflict you, and to grant relief to you who are oppressed and to us as well, when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels in blazing fire.

He will inflict vengeance on those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. They will suffer the penalty of eternal destruction, separated from the presence of the Lord and the glory of His might, on the day He comes to be glorified in His saints and regarded with wonder by all who have believed, including you who have believed our testimony.

To this end, we always pray for you, that our God will count you worthy of His calling, and that He will powerfully fulfill your every good desire and work of faith, so that the name of our Lord Jesus will be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and of the Lord Jesus Christ." ( 2 Thessalonians 1:5-12 BSB)
