3:12 For the eyes of the Lord [are] over the righteous, and his ears [are open] unto their prayers: but the {i} face of the Lord [is] against them that do evil.

(i) This word face after the manner of the Hebrews, is taken for anger.

3:12 The eyes of the Lord [are] over the righteous. He ceases not to regard his righteous servants.

His ears [are open] unto their prayers. He not only sees, but hears when they cry to him.

But the face of the Lord [is] against them that do evil. Is turned in displeasure upon evil doers.

3:12 The eyes of the Lord are over the righteous - For good. Anger appears in the whole face; love, chiefly in the eyes.

3:8-13 Though Christians cannot always be exactly of the same mind, yet they should have compassion one of another, and love as brethren. If any man desires to live comfortably on earth, or to possess eternal life in heaven, he must bridle his tongue from wicked, abusive, or deceitful words. He must forsake and keep far from evil actions, do all the good he can, and seek peace with all men. For God, all-wise and every where present, watches over the righteous, and takes care of them. None could or should harm those who copied the example of Christ, who is perfect goodness, and did good to others as his followers.
