Psalm 6:8 Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for the LORD has heard my weeping.
Psalm 119:115 Depart from me, you evildoers, that I may obey the commandments of my God.
Psalm 139:19 If only you, God, would slay the wicked! Away from me, you who are bloodthirsty!

You may disregard these psalms since they were written by sinners. And you may disregard my pointing them out. But the important question is, did Jesus also disregard them?
Quote:
Luke 13:27 NIV "But he will reply, 'I don't know you or where you come from. Away from me, all you evildoers!'”
Matthew 16:23 Jesus turned and said to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns."
Matthew 4:10 Jesus said to him, "Away from me, Satan! For it is written: 'Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.'"
