Psalm 12:2-4
Modern English Version

2 They speak empty words, each with his own neighbor;
    they speak with flattering lips and a double heart.

3 The Lord will cut off all flattering lips,
    and the tongue that speaks proud things,
4 who have said, “With our tongue will we prevail;
    our lips are in our control, who is master over us?”
