John Gill Commentary Psalms 7:11

"God is a righteous judge, Yea, a God that hath indignation every day." — Psalms 7:11 (ASV)

God judges the righteous
Not all that are thought to be righteous, or think themselves to be so, are such; nor is any man naturally righteous, or of himself, nor by virtue of his obedience to the law of works; but such only are righteous who are made so by the obedience of Christ;

These God governs and protects, avenges their injuries and defends their persons; some render the words, "God is a righteous Judge" ^F6 ; he is so now in the administrations of his government of the universe, and he will be so hereafter in the general judgment of the world;

and God is angry [with the wicked] every day ;
Wicked men are daily sinning, and God is always the same in his nature, and has the same aversion to sin continually; and though he is not always making men examples of his wrath, yet his wrath is revealed from heaven against all unrighteousness of men;

And there are frequent instances of it; and when he is silent he is still angry, and in his own time will stir up all his wrath, and rebuke in his hot displeasure.
