Psalm 12:3-5

Revised Geneva Translation

³ The LORD cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaks proud things,

⁴ which have said, “With our tongue we will prevail. Our lips are our own. Who is lord over us?”

⁵ “Now, for the oppression of the needy, for the sighs of the poor, I will arise;” says the LORD, “and will speak their deliverance.”
