MLV(i)
1 Help, Jehovah, because the holy man ceases, because the faithful fail from among the sons of men.
2 They speak falsehood everyone with his neighbor. They speak with a flattering lip and with a double heart. 3 Jehovah will cut off all flattering lips, the tongue that speaks great things, 4 who have said, We prevail with our tongue will. Our lips are our own. Who is lord over us?
5 Because of the oppression of the poor, because of the sighing of the needy, now I will arise, says Jehovah. I will set him into the safety he breathes for.
6 The words of Jehovah are pure words, as silver tried in a furnace on the earth, purified seven times. 7 You will keep them, O Jehovah. You will preserve them from this generation everlasting.
8 The wicked walk on every side when vileness is exalted among the sons of men.
