12:1  For the Chief Musician; set to the Sheminith. A Psalm of David. Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.
12:2  They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lip, and with a double heart, do they speak.
12:3  The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, the tongue that speaketh great things:
12:4  Who have said, with our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?
12:5  For the spoiling of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the LORD; I will set him in safety at whom they puff.
12:6  The words of the LORD are pure words; as silver tried in a furnace on the earth, purified seven times.
12:7  Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
12:8  The wicked walk on every side, when vileness is exalted among the sons of men.
