The Godly Are No More
121Help, O LORD, for the godly are no more;the faithful have vanished from among men.+2They lie to one another;they speak with flattering lips and a double heart.+3May the LORD cut off all flattering lipsand every boastful tongue.+4They say, “With our tongues we will prevail.We own our lips— who can be our master?”+5“For the cause of the oppressedand for the groaning of the needy,I will now arise,” says the LORD.“I will bring safety to him who yearns.”+6The words of the LORD are flawless,like silver refined in a furnace,like gold purified sevenfold.+7You, O LORD, will keep us;You will forever guard us from this generation.+8The wicked wander freely,and vileness is exalted among men.+Footnotes (1)
