Psalm 12:5-7

Young's Literal Translation

⁵Because of the spoiling of the poor, Because of the groaning of the needy, Now do I arise, saith Jehovah, I set in safety [him who] doth breathe for it.

⁶Sayings of Jehovah [are] pure sayings; Silver tried in a furnace of earth refined sevenfold.

⁷Thou, O Jehovah, dost preserve them, Thou keepest us from this generation to the age.
