King David

Everyone lies to his neighbor;
their flattering lips speak with deception

May the LORD cut off all flattering lips
and every boastful tongue

that says, We will triumph with our tongues
we own our lips —who is our master

Because of the oppression of the weak
and the groaning of the needy
I will now arise says the LORD.
I will protect them from those who malign them

And the words of the LORD are flawless,
like silver refined in a furnace of clay
purified seven times

O LORD, you will keep us safe
and protect us from such people forever.

The wicked freely strut about
when what is vile is honored among men

Help, LORD, for the godly are no more
the faithful have vanished from among men
