verso 1

For the Chief Musician; upon an eight-stringed lyre. A Psalm of David. Help, Yahweh; for the godly man ceases. For the faithful fail from among the children of men.


verso 2

Everyone lies to his neighbor. They speak with flattering lips, and with a double heart.


verso 3

May Yahweh cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that boasts,


verso 4

who have said, “With our tongue we will prevail. Our lips are our own. Who is lord over us?”


verso 5

“Because of the oppression of the weak and because of the groaning of the needy, I will now arise,” says Yahweh; “I will set him in safety from those who malign him.”


verso 6

Yahweh’s words are flawless words, as silver refined in a clay furnace, purified seven times.


verso 7

You will keep them, Yahweh. You will preserve them from this generation forever.


verso 8

The wicked walk on every side, when what is vile is exalted among the sons of men.
