Psalms

12

Legacy Standard Bible

1 For the choir director. According to the Sheminith. A Psalm of David. Save, O Yahweh, for the holy man ceases to be, For the faithful disappear from among the sons of men.

2 With a flattering lip and with a double heart they speak.

3 The tongue that speaks great things;

4 Our lips are our own; who is lord over us?”

5 Now I will arise,” says Yahweh; “I will set him in the safety for which he longs.”

6 As silver tried in a furnace on the ground, refined seven times.

7 You will guard him from this generation forever.

8 When vileness is exalted among the sons of men.
