 1 Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.**

 2 They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: *with* flattering lips *and* with a double heart do they speak.*

 3 The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, *and* the tongue that speaketh proud things:*

 4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips *are* our own: who *is* lord over us?*

 5 For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the LORD; I will set *him* in safety *from him that* puffeth at him.*

 6 The words of the LORD *are* pure words: *as* silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.

 7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.*

 8 The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.*
