Help, for the Godly Are No More
{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.
{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.
Everyone lies to their neighbor;
they flatter with their lips
but harbor deception in their hearts.
they flatter with their lips
but harbor deception in their hearts.
They speak falsehood every one with his neighbour: [with] flattering lip, with a double heart, do they speak.
May the Lord silence all flattering lips
and every boastful tongue —
and every boastful tongue —
Jehovah will cut off all flattering lips, the tongue that speaketh proud things,
those who say,
“By our tongues we will prevail;
our own lips will defend us — who is lord over us?”
“By our tongues we will prevail;
our own lips will defend us — who is lord over us?”
Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail, our lips are our own: who [is] lord over us?
“Because the poor are plundered and the needy groan,
I will now arise,” says the Lord.
“I will protect them from those who malign them.”
I will now arise,” says the Lord.
“I will protect them from those who malign them.”
Because 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.
The words of Jehovah are pure words, silver tried in the furnace of earth, purified seven times.
You, Lord, will keep the needy safe
and will protect us forever from the wicked,
and will protect us forever from the wicked,
Thou, Jehovah, wilt keep them, thou wilt preserve them from this generation for ever.
