Psalms 12:3 ASV

¹  Help, Jehovah; for the godly man ceaseth; For the faithful fail from among the children of men.

²  They speak falsehood every one with his neighbor: With flattering lip, and with a double heart, do they speak.

³  Jehovah will cut off all flattering lips, The tongue that speaketh great things;

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 poor, because of the sighing of the needy, Now will I arise, saith Jehovah; I will set him in the safety he panteth for.
