Psalm 12:3-5
Legacy Standard Bible
3 May Yahweh cut off all flattering lips,
The tongue that (A)speaks great things;
4 Who (B)have said, “With our tongue we will prevail;
Our lips are [a]our own; who is lord over us?”
5 “Because of the (C)devastation of the afflicted, because of the groaning of the needy,
Now (D)I will arise,” says Yahweh; “I will (E)set him in the [b]safety for which he [c]longs.”
