Psalms 12

1 <> Help, Yahweh; for the godly man ceases. For the faithful fail from among the children of men. 2 Everyone lies to his neighbor. With flattering lips, and with a double heart, do they speak. 3 May Yahweh cut off all flattering lips, And the tongue that boasts, 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 weak and because of the groaning of the needy, I will now arise," says Yahweh; "I will set him in safety from those who malign him." 6 The words of Yahweh are flawless words, As silver refined in a clay furnace, purified seven times. 7 You will keep them, Yahweh, You will preserve them from this generation forever. 8 The wicked walk on every side, When what is vile is exalted among the sons of men.
