Discussion

The Lord has an implicit role, which may set up the book of Psalms: his agency does not need to be explicit in order to be present. He is the source of the Torah which leads to good choices, and he is the one overseeing and thus ensuring the results. The wicked doesn't need to do anything additional to receive the punishment for his wickedness: it comes as a natural result to his prior choices to become wicked.
