Psalm 12 :: Darby Translation (DBY)

Psa 12:1{To the chief Musician. Upon Sheminith. A Psalm of David.} Save, Jehovah, for the godly man is gone; for the faithful have failed from among the children of men.
Psa 12:2They speak falsehood every one with his neighbour: with flattering lip, with a double heart, do they speak.
Psa 12:3Jehovah will cut off all flattering lips, the tongue that speaketh proud things,
Psa 12:4Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail, our lips are our own: who is lord over us?
Psa 12:5Because of the oppression of the afflicted, because of the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith Jehovah, I will set him in safety, at whom they puff.
Psa 12:6The words of Jehovah are pure words, silver tried in the furnace of earth, purified seven times.
Psa 12:7Thou, Jehovah, wilt keep them, thou wilt preserve them from this generation for ever.
Psa 12:8The wicked walk about on every side, when vileness is exalted among the children of men.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
