Psalm 12:2

Oppression By The Wicked

¹ Help, Jehovah; for the godly man ceaseth; For the faithful fail from among the children of men. ² They speak falsehood every one with his neighbor: With flattering lip, and with a double heart, do they speak. ³ Jehovah will cut off all flattering lips, The tongue that speaketh great things;
