Psalm 12:1-8 NCV

[1] Save me, LORD, because the good people are all gone; no true believers are left on earth. [2] Everyone lies to his neighbors; they say one thing and mean another. [3] The LORD will stop those flattering lips and cut off those bragging tongues. [4] They say, "Our tongues will help us win. We can say what we wish; no one is our master." [5] But the LORD says, "I will now rise up, because the poor are being hurt. Because of the moans of the helpless, I will give them the help they want." [6] The LORD's words are pure, like silver purified by fire, like silver purified seven times over. [7] LORD, you will keep us safe; you will always protect us from such people. [8] But the wicked are all around us; everyone loves what is wrong.
