| Psalms 12:1 | Help, LORD; 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? | To the Overseer, on the octave. A Psalm of David. Save, Jehovah, for the saintly hath failed, For the stedfast have ceased From the sons of men: |
| Psalms 12:2 | They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips 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? | Vanity they speak each with his neighbour, Lip of flattery! With heart and heart they speak. |
| Psalms 12:3 | The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud 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? | Jehovah doth cut off all lips of flattery, A tongue speaking great things, |
| 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: | Who said, `By our tongue we do mightily: Our lips [are] our own; who [is] lord over us?` |
| Psalms 12:5 | For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the LORD; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him. | 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: | Because of the spoiling of the poor, Because of the groaning of the needy, Now do I arise, saith Jehovah, I set in safety [him who] doth breathe for it. |
| Psalms 12:6 | The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of 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. | Sayings of Jehovah [are] pure sayings; Silver tried in a furnace of earth refined sevenfold. |
| Psalms 12:7 | Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever. | You will keep them, O Lord, you will keep them safe from this generation for ever. | | Thou, O Jehovah, dost preserve them, Thou keepest us from this generation to the age. |
| Psalms 12:8 | The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted. | The sinners are walking on every side, and evil is honoured among the children of men. | | Around the wicked walk continually, According as vileness is exalted by sons of men! |
