12:1 Help, Lord, because the godly are all gone; the faithful have completely disappeared from the human race!
12:2 Everyone tells lies to everyone else; they talk with slick speech and divided hearts.
12:3 Let the Lord cut off all slick-talking lips and every tongue that brags and brags,
12:4 that says, “We’re unbeatable with our tongues! Who could get the best of us with lips like ours?”
12:5 But the Lord says, “Because the poor are oppressed, because of the groans of the needy, I’m now standing up. I will provide the help they are gasping for.”
12:6 The Lord’s promises are pure, like silver that’s been refined in an oven, purified seven times over!
12:7 You, Lord, will keep us, protecting us from this generation forever.
12:8 The wicked roam all over the place, while depravity is praised by human beings.
