Psalm 12:3-5

American Standard Version

³ Jehovah will cut off all flattering lips,
The tongue that speaketh great things;
⁴ Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail;
Our lips are ^[a]our own: who is lord over us?
⁵ Because of the oppression of the poor, because of the sighing of the needy,
Now will I arise, saith Jehovah;
I will set him in the safety he panteth for.
