The Groans of the Poor


Psalms 12:1-8

[1]Help, O  Lord, for the godly are fast disappearing! 

    The faithful have vanished from the earth!

[2]Neighbors lie to each other, 

    speaking with flattering lips and deceitful hearts.

[3]May the Lord cut off their flattering lips 

    and silence their boastful tongues.

[4]They say, “We will lie to our hearts’ content. 

    Our lips are our own—who can stop us?”

[5]The Lord replies, “I have seen violence done to the helpless, 

    and I have heard the groans of the poor. 

Now I will rise up to rescue them, 

    as they have longed for me to do.”

[6]The Lord’s promises are pure, 

    like silver refined in a furnace, 

    purified seven times over.

[7]Therefore, Lord, we know you will protect the oppressed, 

    preserving them forever from this lying generation,

[8]even though the wicked strut about, 

    and evil is praised throughout the land.
