Psalm 28:3

3 No me arrastres con los impíos ni con los que obran iniquidad, que hablan de paz con su prójimo, mientras hay maldad en su corazón.

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 Ati clamo, oh SEÑOR; roca mía, no seas sordo para conmigo, no sea que si guardas silencio hacia mí, venga a ser semejante a los que descienden a la fosa.

2 Escucha la voz de mis súplicas cuando a ti pido auxilio; cuando levanto mis manos hacia el lugar santísimo de tu santuario.

3 No me arrastres con los impíos ni con los que obran iniquidad, que hablan de paz con su prójimo, mientras hay maldad en su corazón.

4 Dales conforme a su obra y según la maldad de sus hechos; dales conforme a la obra de sus manos; págales su merecido.

5 Porque no tienen en cuenta los hechos del SEÑOR ni la obra de sus manos, El los derribará y no los edificará.
