Psalms 94:20

King James Version (1769)

20 Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?
Untruth

Misinterpretations often twist this verse into a wholesale rejection of all government or civil authority, promoting anarchy or rebellion against any law deemed unfavorable, ignoring the psalm's context of crying out against specifically wicked regimes that frame evil by statute; another error applies it selectively to modern political opponents, labeling disagreed policies as 'iniquity' without regard for biblical standards of justice, thus weaponizing the text for partisan agendas rather than discerning true corruption.

Truth

Psalm 94:20 poses a rhetorical question asserting that God does not fellowship with thrones of iniquity—corrupt seats of authority that enact laws to perpetrate mischief and injustice—highlighting divine holiness and opposition to any human power that perverts justice through legislation, thereby comforting the oppressed with the assurance that God remains sovereign judge over wicked rulers.
