Psalms 12:1-4 ▼

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 They speak worthlessness to one another; With a flattering lip and with a double heart they speak.

3 May Yahweh cut off all flattering lips, The tongue that speaks great things;

4 Who have said, “With our tongue we will prevail; Our lips are our own; who is lord over us?”
