Psalms, Chapter 12
1. Help, Jehovah; For the godly man ceaseth; For the faithful fail from among the children of men.
2. They speak falsehood every one with his neighbor: With flattering lip, and with a double heart, do they speak.
3. Jehovah will cut off all flattering lips, The tongue that speaketh great things;
4. Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; Our lips are our own: Who is lord over us?
5. Because of the oppression of the poor, because of the sighing of the needy, Now will I arise, saith Jehovah; I will set him in the safety he panteth for.
6. The words of Jehovah are pure words; As silver tried in a furnace on the earth, Purified seven times.
7. Thou wilt keep them, O Jehovah, Thou wilt preserve them from this generation for ever.
8. The wicked walk on every side, When vileness is exalted among the sons of men.
