They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak (12:2) The Lord shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things (12:3) Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us (12:4) 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 (12:5) The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times (12:6) Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever (12:7) The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted
(12:8)
