Chapter 12

1

 

  For the Chief Musician; set to the Sheminith. A Psalm of David. 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.
