Psalms:12

* Help , LORD ; for the godly man ceases ; for the faithful fail from among the children of men . * They speak vanity every one with his neighbor : with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak . * The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips , and the tongue that speaks proud things : * Who have said , With our tongue will we prevail ; our lips are our own : who is lord over us ? * For the oppression of the poor , for the sighing of the needy , now will I arise , said the LORD ; I will set him in safety from him that puffs at him . * The words of the LORD are pure words : as silver tried in a furnace of earth , purified seven times . * You shall keep them , O LORD , you shall preserve them from this generation for ever . * The wicked walk on every side , when the vilest men are exalted .
