Psalm 12 ~ King James Version ~ (KJV)

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.
