American Standard Version
"Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; Our lips are our own: who is lord over us? "
— Psalms 12:4, American Standard Version
“Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?”
“who have said, "With our tongue we will prevail. Our lips are our own. Who is lord over us?"”
“They say,“We speak persuasively; we know how to flatter and boast. Who is our master?””
“Consider, and hear me, O Lord, my God. Enlighten my eyes, that I never sleep in death:”
“They have said, With our tongues will we overcome; our lips are ours: who is lord over us?”
“Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?”
Help, Jehovah; for the godly man ceaseth; For the faithful fail from among the children of men.
They speak falsehood every one with his neighbor: With flattering lip, and with a double heart, do they speak.
Jehovah will cut off all flattering lips, The tongue that speaketh great things;
Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; Our lips are our own: who is lord over us?
Because of the oppression of the poor, because of the sighing of the needy, Now will I arise, saith Jehovah; I will set him in the safety he panteth for.
The words of Jehovah are pure words; As silver tried in a furnace on the earth, Purified seven times.
Thou wilt keep them, O Jehovah, Thou wilt preserve them from this generation for ever.
