Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 5. - Because they regard not the works of the Lord, nor the operation of his hands. They do not note God's providential workings. If they did, they would see that judgment falls upon the wicked, and, seeing this, they would fear and abstain from evil. But they take no notice - God is not in all their thoughts. For this neglect and contempt of him, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(5) The works of the Lord, nor the operation of his hands--i.e., His strict and even-handed justice, which the wicked forget or, deceived by appearances (Isaiah 5:19), ignore. For the contrast between "build up" and "pull down," compare Jeremiah 42:10. This verse is in that prophet's style (Jeremiah 1:10; Jeremiah 18:9).
