Psalm 28:3

3 Não me arrastes juntamente com os ímpios e com os que praticam a iniqüidade, que falam de paz ao seu próximo, mas têm o mal no seu coração.

Psalm 28:3 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 28:3

Draw me not away with the wicked
That is, with those who are notoriously wicked; who are inwardly and outwardly wicked; whose inward part is very wickedness, and who sell themselves and give up themselves to work wickedness: the sense is, that God would not suffer him to be drawn away, or drawn aside by wicked men, but that he would deliver him from temptation; or that he would not give him up into their hands, to be at their mercy; who he knew would not spare him, if they had him in their power; or that he might not die the death of the wicked, and perish with them; see ( Psalms 26:9 Psalms 26:10 ) ;

and with the workers of iniquity;
who make it the trade and business of their lives to commit sin; and which may be applied, not only to profane sinners, but to professors of religion, ( Matthew 7:23 ) ; since it follows,

which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief [is] in their
hearts;
hypocrites, double minded men, who have a form of godliness, but deny the power of it; pretend to religion, and have none; and speak fair to the face, but design mischief and ruin; as Saul and his servants did to David, ( 1 Samuel 18:17 1 Samuel 18:22 ) .

Psalm 28:3 In-Context

1 A ti clamo, ó Senhor; rocha minha, não emudeças para comigo; não suceda que, calando-te a meu respeito, eu me torne semelhante aos que descem � cova.

2 Ouve a voz das minhas súplicas, quando a ti clamo, quando levanto as minhas mãos para o teu santo templo.

3 Não me arrastes juntamente com os ímpios e com os que praticam a iniqüidade, que falam de paz ao seu próximo, mas têm o mal no seu coração.

4 Retribui-lhes segundo as suas obras e segundo a malícia dos seus feitos; dá-lhes conforme o que fizeram as suas mãos; retribui-lhes o que eles merecem.

5 Porquanto eles não atentam para as obras do Senhor, nem para o que as suas mãos têm feito, ele os derrubará e não os reedificará
