Book 27 : KETUVIM - PSALMS - Chapter 012
12:001
For the Leader; on the Sheminith. A Psalm of David
12:002
Help, HaShem; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful
fail from among the children of men
12:003
They speak falsehood every one with his neighbour; with
flattering lip, and with a double heart, do they speak
12:004
May HaShem cut off all flattering lips, the tongue that
speaketh proud things
12:005
Who have said: 'Our tongue will we make mighty; our lips
are with us: who is lord over us?
12:006
'For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the
needy, now will I arise', saith HaShem; 'I will set him in safety at whom they
puff.
12:007
The words of HaShem are pure words, as silver tried in a
crucible on the earth, refined seven times
12:008
Thou wilt keep them, O HaShem; Thou wilt preserve us from
this generation for ever
12:009
The wicked walk on every side, when vileness is exalted
among the sons of men
