Psalms 11 — UBES

11Verse 1For the end, a Psalm of David, upon the eighth.^{Verse 2}Save me, O Lord; for the godly man has failed;
For truth is diminished from among the children of men.
^{Verse 3}Every one has spoken vanity to his neighbor:
Their lips are deceitful, they have spoken with a double heart.
^{Verse 4}Let the Lord destroy all the deceitful lips,
And the tongue that speaks great words:
^{Verse 5}Who have said, We will magnify our tongue;
Our lips are our own: who is Lord of us?^{Verse 6}Because of the misery of the poor,
And because of the sighing of the needy,
Now will I arise, saith the Lord,
I will set them in safety; I will speak to them thereof openly.
^{Verse 7}The oracles of the Lord are pure oracles;
As silver tried in the fire, proved in a furnace of earth,
Purified seven times.
^{Verse 8}Thou, O Lord, shalt keep us,
And shalt preserve us, from this generation, and forever.
^{Verse 9}The ungodly walk around:
According to thy greatness thou hast greatly exalted the sons of men.
