12:1  For the leader; “upon the eighth.” A psalm of David.
12:2  Help, Lord, for no one loyal remains; the faithful have vanished from the children of men.
12:3  They tell lies to one another, speak with deceiving lips and a double heart.
12:4  May the Lord cut off all deceiving lips, and every boastful tongue,
12:5  Those who say, “By our tongues we prevail; when our lips speak, who can lord it over us?”
12:6  “Because they rob the weak, and the needy groan, I will now arise,” says the Lord; “I will grant safety to whoever longs for it.”
12:7  The promises of the Lord are sure, silver refined in a crucible, silver purified seven times.
12:8  You, O Lord, protect us always; preserve us from this generation.
