For the director of music. According to sheminith.b A psalm of David.
1 Help, Lord, for no one is faithful anymore;
those who are loyal have vanished from the human race.
2 Everyone lies to their neighbor;
they flatter with their lips
but harbor deception in their hearts.
they flatter with their lips
but harbor deception in their hearts.
3 May the Lord silence all flattering lips
and every boastful tongue —
and every boastful tongue —
4 those who say,
“By our tongues we will prevail;
our own lips will defend us — who is lord over us?”
“By our tongues we will prevail;
our own lips will defend us — who is lord over us?”
5 “Because the poor are plundered and the needy groan,
I will now arise,” says the Lord.
“I will protect them from those who malign them.”
I will now arise,” says the Lord.
“I will protect them from those who malign them.”
6 And the words of the Lord are flawless,
like silver purified in a crucible,
like goldc refined seven times.
like silver purified in a crucible,
like goldc refined seven times.
7 You, Lord, will keep the needy safe
and will protect us forever from the wicked,
and will protect us forever from the wicked,
8 who freely strut about
when what is vile is honored by the human race.
when what is vile is honored by the human race.
