12:1 To
the
chiefe
Musician
vpon
Sheminith.
A
Psalme
of
Dauid.
Helpe
Lord,
for
the
godly
man
ceaseth;
for
the
faithfull
faile
from
among
the
children
of
men.
12:2 They
speake
vanitie
euery
one
with
his
neighbour:
with
flattering
lips,
and
with
a
double
heart
do
they
speake.
12:3 The
Lord
shall
cut
off
all
flattering
lips,
and
the
tongue
that
speaketh
proud
things.
12:4 Who
haue
said,
with
our
tongue
wil
we
preuaile,
our
lips
are
our
owne:
who
is
Lord
ouer
vs
12:5 For
the
oppression
of
the
poore,
for
the
sighing
of
the
needy,
now
will
I
arise
(saith
the
Lord,)
I
will
set
him
in
safetie
from
him
that
puffeth
at
him.
12:6 The
wordes
of
the
Lord
are
pure
wordes:
as
siluer
tried
in
a
fornace
of
earth
purified
seuen
times.
12:7 Thou
shalt
keepe
them,
(O
Lord,)
thou
shalt
preserue
them,
from
this
generation
for
euer.
12:8 The
wicked
walke
on
euery
side,
when
the
vilest
men
are
exalted.
