Help, LORD
, for athe godly
man
ceases
to be, For the faithful
disappear
from among the sons
of men
.
They aspeak 1falsehood
to one
another
; With bflattering
2lips
and with a double
heart
they speak
.
May the LORD cut
off
all
flattering
lips
, The tongue
that aspeaks
great
things
;
Who ahave said
, "With our tongue
we will prevail
; Our lips
are 1our own; who
is lord
over us?"
"Because of the adevastation
of the afflicted
, because
of the groaning
of the needy
, Now
bI will arise
," says
the LORD
; "I will cset
him in the safety
for which he longs
."
The awords of the LORD
are pure
words
; As silver
btried
in a furnace
on the earth
, refined
seven
times
.
You, O LORD, will keep
them; You will apreserve
him from this
generation
forever
.
The awicked strut
about on every
side
When 1 bvileness
is exalted
among the sons
of men
.
