Psalm 69:27 in context
25Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents.

27Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy righteousness.
28Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.
29But I am poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me up on high.
