Salmos 28:3

3 No me arrebates á una con los malos, Y con los que hacen iniquidad: Los cuales hablan paz con sus prójimos, Y la maldad está en su corazón.

Salmos 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 ) .

Salmos 28:3 In-Context

1 A TI clamaré, oh Jehová, Fortaleza mía: no te desentiendas de mí; Porque no sea yo, dejándome tú, Semejante á los que descienden al sepulcro.
2 Oye la voz de mis ruegos cuando clamo á ti, Cuando alzo mis manos hacia el templo de tu santidad.
3 No me arrebates á una con los malos, Y con los que hacen iniquidad: Los cuales hablan paz con sus prójimos, Y la maldad está en su corazón.
4 Dales conforme á su obra, y conforme á la malicia de sus hechos: Dales conforme á la obra de sus manos, Dales su paga.
5 Porque no atendieron á las obras de Jehová, Ni al hecho de sus manos, Derribarálos, y no los edificará.
