God Judges Nations and Individuals
Commentators explain that the psalmist uses a "greater to the less" argument. If God holds entire nations accountable for their sins throughout history, as seen with empires like Assyria or the inhabitants of Canaan, it is foolish to believe He will not correct and judge individual wrongdoers. His justice operates on both a grand, historical scale and a personal, individual level.
