Revised Literal Translation
Psalms 12:1-6
11HelpH3467, YhwhH3068; for the godly manH2623 ceasethH1584; for the faithfulH539 failH6461 from among the childrenH1121 of menH120.2
2They speakH1696 vanityH7723 every oneH376 with his neighbourH7453: with flatteringH2513 lipsH8193 and with a doubleH3820 heartH3820 do they speakH1696.3
3YhwhH3068 shall cut offH3772 all flatteringH2513 lipsH8193, and the tongueH3956 that speakethH1696 proudH1419 things:4
4Who have saidH559, With our tongueH3956 will we prevailH1396; our lipsH8193 are our own: who is lordH113 over us?5
5For the oppressionH7701 of the poorH6041, for the sighingH603 of the needyH34, now will I ariseH6965, saithH559 YhwhH3068; I will setH7896 him in safetyH3468 from him that puffethH6315 at him.6
6The wordsH565 of YhwhH3068 are pureH2889 wordsH565: as silverH3701 triedH6884 in a furnaceH5948 of earthH776, purifiedH2212 seven timesH7659.
