| 1. | {To the chief Musician. Upon Sheminith. A Psalm of David.} |
| 2. | Save, Jehovah, for the godly man is gone; for the faithful have failed from among the children of men. |
| 3. | They speak falsehood every one with his neighbour: with flattering lip, with a double heart, do they speak. |
| 4. | Jehovah will cut off all flattering lips, the tongue that speaketh proud things, |
| 5. | Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail, our lips are our own: who is lord over us? |
| 6. | Because of the oppression of the afflicted, because of the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith Jehovah, I will set him in safety, at whom they puff. |
| 7. | The words of Jehovah are pure words, silver tried in the furnace of earth, purified seven times. |
| 8. | Thou, Jehovah, wilt keep them, thou wilt preserve them from this generation for ever. |
| 9. | The wicked walk about on every side, when vileness is exalted among the children of men. |
