12:1 [For the choir director; on the [sheminith]; a psalm by David.] Help, O LORD. No godly person is left. Faithful people have vanished from among Adam's descendants!
12:2 All people speak foolishly. They speak with flattering lips. They say one thing but mean another.
12:3 May the LORD cut off every flattering lip and every bragging tongue
12:4 that has said, "We will overcome with our tongues. With lips such as ours, who can be our master?"
12:5 "Because oppressed people are robbed and needy people groan, I will now arise," says the LORD. "I will provide safety for those who long for it."
12:6 The promises of the LORD are pure, like silver refined in a furnace and purified seven times.
12:7 O LORD, you will protect them. You will keep each one safe from those people forever.
12:8 Wicked people parade around when immorality increases among Adam's descendants.
