Context of Psalms 69:27

25Let their habitation be desolate; let there be no dweller in their tents. 26For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten, and they talk for the sorrow of those whom thou hast wounded. Add iniquity unto their iniquity, and let them not come into thy righteousness. 28Let them be blotted out of the book of life, and not be written with the righteous. 29But I am afflicted and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me secure on high.
