Young's Literal Translation

2 Vanity they speak each with his neighbour, Lip of flattery! With heart and heart they speak.

3 Jehovah doth cut off all lips of flattery, A tongue speaking great things,

4 Who said, `By our tongue we do mightily: Our lips [are] our own; who [is] lord over us?'

    “By our tongues we will prevail;(E)
    our own lips will defend us—who is lord over us?”
