World English Bible
"who have said, "With our tongue we will prevail. Our lips are our own. Who is lord over us?""
— Psalms 12:4, World English Bible
“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 will we 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, Yahweh; for the godly man ceases. For the faithful fail from among the children of men.
Everyone lies to his neighbor. They speak with flattering lips, and with a double heart.
May Yahweh cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that boasts,
who have said, "With our tongue we will prevail. Our lips are our own. Who is lord over us?"
"Because of the oppression of the weak and because of the groaning of the needy, I will now arise," says Yahweh; "I will set him in safety from those who malign him."
The words of Yahweh are flawless words, as silver refined in a clay furnace, purified seven times.
You will keep them, Yahweh. You will preserve them from this generation forever.
