Psalms
Chapter Twelve
<<To the chief Musician upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David.>>
1 ¶ Help, LORD; for
the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.
2 They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with
a double heart do they speak.
3 The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud
things:
4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who
is lord over us?
5 For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise,
saith the LORD; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him.
6 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth,
purified seven times.
7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation
for ever.
8 The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.
