(Quote)They who have carried on with their crimes and evil acts
will suffer the defeat that every faithful lover of humanity wishes
for THEM, he said.


What does "them" refer to?

Is it referring to "They" or "defeat"?

I think it refers to "they" because it's in the plural form.

Do you agree with me?
(In another view, it seems referring to "defeat" in meaning)
