Punishment of the wicked

Their disobedience

2 Thessalonians 1:8

He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.

Romans 2:8-9

8 But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger.

9 There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile;

Ephesians 5:6

Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God's wrath comes on those who are disobedient.

Their idol worship

Isaiah 10:10-11

10 As my hand seized the kingdoms of the idols, kingdoms whose images excelled those of Jerusalem and Samaria—

11 shall I not deal with Jerusalem and her images as I dealt with Samaria and her idols?’”
Revelation 9:20-21

20 The rest of mankind that were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood—idols that cannot see or hear or walk.

21 Nor did they repent of their murders, their magic arts, their sexual immorality or their thefts.

Their evil ways

Jeremiah 21:14

I will punish you as your deeds deserve, declares the LORD. I will kindle a fire in your forests that will consume everything around you.’”

Hosea 12:2

The LORD has a charge to bring against Judah; he will punish Jacob according to his ways and repay him according to his deeds.
