PSA-12:1 To the chief Musician upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David.

Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail

from among the children of men.

PSA-12:2 They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: [with]

flattering lips [and] with a double heart do they speak.

PSA-12:3 The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, [and] the

tongue that speaketh proud things:

PSA-12:4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our

lips [are] our own: who [is] lord over us?

PSA-12:5 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.

PSA-12:6 The words of the LORD [are] pure words: [as] silver

tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. PSA-12:7 Thou

shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this

generation for ever. PSA-12:8 The wicked walk on every side,

when the vilest men are exalted.
