“Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy righteousness.”
The prayer that guilt be added to the enemies and that they not enter God's righteousness articulates the request that the enemies be excluded from God's saving purposes. The reference to not entering into God's righteousness suggests exclusion from salvation and the covenant community. This verse petitions for the ultimate judgment: not merely punishment but permanent alienation from God's blessing.
