Psalm 12:2-4
New King James Version

2 (A)They speak idly everyone with his neighbor;
With flattering lips and [a]a double heart they speak.

3 May the Lord [b]cut off all flattering lips,
And the tongue that speaks [c]proud things,
4 Who have said,
“With our tongue we will prevail;
Our lips are our own;
Who is lord over us?”
