Psalm 12 :: Legacy Standard Bible (LSB)

They speak ^H1696 worthlessness ^H7723 to one ^H376 another ^H7453;

With a flattering ^H2513 lip ^H8193 and with a double ^H3820 heart ^H3820 they speak ^H1696.

May Yahweh ^H3068 cut ^H3772 off ^H3772 all ^H3605 flattering ^H2513 lips ^H8193,

The tongue ^H3956 that speaks ^H1696 great ^H1419 things ^H1419;

Who ^H834 have said ^H559, “With our tongue ^H3956 we will prevail ^H1396;

Our lips ^H8193 are [fn]our own; who ^H4310 is lord ^H113 over us?”

“Because ^H4480 of the devastation ^H7701 of the afflicted ^H6041, because ^H4480 of the groaning ^H603 of the needy ^H34,

Now ^H6258 I will arise ^H6965,” says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068; “I will set ^H7896 him in the [fn]safety ^H3468 for which he [fn]longs ^H6315.”

The words ^H565 of Yahweh ^H3068 are pure ^H2889 words ^H565;

As silver ^H3701 tried ^H6884 in a furnace ^H5948 on the ground ^H776, refined ^H2212 seven ^H7659 times ^H7659.

You, O Yahweh ^H3068, will keep ^H8104 them;

You will guard ^H5341 him from this ^H2098 generation ^H1755 forever ^H5769.

The wicked ^H7563 strut ^H1980 about ^H1980 on every ^H5439 side ^H5439

When [fn]vileness ^H2149 is exalted ^H7311 among the sons ^H1121 of men ^H120.
