== Tehillim (Book of Psalms), Chapter 12 ==

<named id="1"/>1 For the Leader; on the Sheminith. A Psalm of David.

<named id="2"/>2 Help, HaShem; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.

<named id="3"/>3 They speak falsehood every one with his neighbour; with flattering lip, and with a double heart, do they speak.

<named id="4"/>4 May HaShem cut off all flattering lips, the tongue that speaketh proud things!

<named id="5"/>5 Who have said: 'Our tongue will we make mighty; our lips are with us: who is lord over us?'

<named id="6"/>6 'For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise', saith HaShem; 'I will set him in safety at whom they puff.'

<named id="7"/>7 The words of HaShem are pure words, as silver tried in a crucible on the earth, refined seven times.

<named id="8"/>8 Thou wilt keep them, O HaShem; Thou wilt preserve us from this generation for ever.

<named id="9"/>9 The wicked walk on every side, when vileness is exalted among the sons of men.
