New Living Translation

New International Version

  • For the choir director: A psalm of David, to be accompanied by an eight-stringed instrument.a

    Help, O LORD, for the godly are fast disappearing!
    The faithful have vanished from the earth!
  • Psalm 12a

    For the director of music. According to sheminith.b A psalm of David.

    Help, Lord, for no one is faithful anymore;
    those who are loyal have vanished from the human race.
  • Neighbors lie to each other,
    speaking with flattering lips and deceitful hearts.
  • Everyone lies to their neighbor;
    they flatter with their lips
    but harbor deception in their hearts.
  • May the LORD cut off their flattering lips
    and silence their boastful tongues.
  • May the Lord silence all flattering lips
    and every boastful tongue —
  • They say, “We will lie to our hearts’ content.
    Our lips are our own — who can stop us?”
  • those who say,
    “By our tongues we will prevail;
    our own lips will defend us — who is lord over us?”
  • The LORD replies, “I have seen violence done to the helpless,
    and I have heard the groans of the poor.
    Now I will rise up to rescue them,
    as they have longed for me to do.”
  • “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.”
  • The LORD’s promises are pure,
    like silver refined in a furnace,
    purified seven times over.
  • And the words of the Lord are flawless,
    like silver purified in a crucible,
    like goldc refined seven times.
  • Therefore, LORD, we know you will protect the oppressed,
    preserving them forever from this lying generation,
  • You, Lord, will keep the needy safe
    and will protect us forever from the wicked,
  • even though the wicked strut about,
    and evil is praised throughout the land.
  • who freely strut about
    when what is vile is honored by the human race.
