| Psalms 12:1 | Help, Jehovah; for the godly man ceaseth; For the faithful fail from among the children of men. | <For the chief music-maker on the Sheminith. A Psalm. Of David.> Send help, Lord, for mercy has come to an end; there is no more faith among the children of men. | Unto the end, a psalm for David. How long, O Lord, wilt thou forget me unto the end? how long dost thou turn away thy face from me? | |
| Psalms 12:2 | They speak falsehood every one with his neighbor: With flattering lip, and with a double heart, do they speak. | Everyone says false words to his neighbour: their tongues are smooth in their talk, and their hearts are full of deceit. | How long shall I take counsels in my soul, sorrow in my heart all the day? | |
| Psalms 12:3 | Jehovah will cut off all flattering lips, The tongue that speaketh great things; | The smooth lips and the tongue of pride will be cut off by the Lord. | How long shall my enemy be exalted over me? | |
| Psalms 12:4 | Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; Our lips are our own: who is lord over us? | They have said, With our tongues will we overcome; our lips are ours: who is lord over us? | Consider, and hear me, O Lord my God. Enlighten my eyes that I never sleep in death: | |
| Psalms 12:5 | Because of the oppression of the poor, because of the sighing of the needy, Now will I arise, saith Jehovah; I will set him in the safety he panteth for. | Because of the crushing of the poor and the weeping of those in need, now will I come to his help, says the Lord; I will give him the salvation which he is desiring. | lest at any time my enemy say: I have prevailed against him. They that trouble me will rejoice when I am moved: | |
| Psalms 12:6 | The words of Jehovah are pure words; As silver tried in a furnace on the earth, Purified seven times. | The words of the Lord are true words: like silver tested by fire and burned clean seven times. | but I have trusted in thy mercy. My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation: I will sing to the Lord, who giveth me good things: yea I will sing to the name of the Lord the most high. | |
| Psalms 12:7 | Thou wilt keep them, O Jehovah, Thou wilt preserve them from this generation for ever. | You will keep them, O Lord, you will keep them safe from this generation for ever. | | |
| Psalms 12:8 | The wicked walk on every side, When vileness is exalted among the sons of men. Psalm 13 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. | The sinners are walking on every side, and evil is honoured among the children of men. | | |
