Psalm 12:3-5

3 May the Lord cut off all flattering lips
and the tongue that speaks boastfully.(A)
4 They say, “Through our tongues we have power;[a]
our lips are our own—who can be our master?”(B)
5 “Because of the oppression of the afflicted
and the groaning of the poor,
I will now rise up,” says the Lord.
“I will put the one who longs for it in a safe place.”(C)
