"He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
He deviseth mischief upon his bed,.... He casts about in his mind on his pillow, when at leisure from all employment; and consults and contrives schemes how to compass his
lusts, and to do injury to others, without doing which he cannot sleep; he setteth himself in a way that is not good, in an evil way, which he chooses and delights in, and determines to continue in, he leaving the paths of righteousness to walk in the ways of darkness: he abhorreth not evil; which is to be abhorred both because of its nature and effects; see Rom 12:9 ; but on the contrary he loves it, takes pleasure in doing it, and in them that commit it: thus, by his thoughts, words, and actions, he appears to be devoid of the fear of God.
