Pensée juive sur Les Psaumes 26:5

שָׂ֭נֵאתִי קְהַ֣ל מְרֵעִ֑ים וְעִם־רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים לֹ֣א אֵשֵֽׁב׃

Je hais le clan des malfaiteurs, et avec les méchants je ne siège point.

Duties of the Heart

We are obligated to warn against evil in three ways: One, forcibly hitting someone by hand (physically), as Pinchas did in the case of Zimri and Cozby. Two, to verbally protest, as Moshe did in saying to the wicked man: "Why strike you your fellow?" (Shemos 2:13). Three, in one's heart, as David said: "I hated the congregation of the evildoers, and with the wicked I shall not sit" (Tehilim 26:5).
