Salmos 12
Dios Habla Hoy
Oración pidiendo la ayuda de Dios
(1) Del maestro de coro, con instrumentos de ocho cuerdas. Salmo de David.
12 (2) Sálvanos, Señor, pues ya no hay creyentes fieles;
ya no hay hombres sinceros.
2 (3) Unos a otros se mienten;
hablan con hipocresía y doble sentido.
3 (4) Arranca, Señor, de raíz
a los hipócritas y fanfarrones,
4 (5) a los que dicen:
«Con tener boca nos basta;
nuestra lengua nos defiende.
¿Quién se atreve a darnos órdenes?»
5 (6) Esto ha dicho el Señor:
«A los pobres y débiles
se les oprime y se les hace sufrir.
Por eso voy ahora a levantarme,
y les daré la ayuda que tanto anhelan.»
6 (7) Las promesas del Señor son puras;
¡son como la plata más pura,
refinada en el horno siete veces!
7 (8) Tú, Señor, nos cuidarás;
¡siempre nos protegerás de tales gentes!
8 (9) Los malvados rondan por todos lados
y todo el mundo alaba la maldad.
Psalm 12
New International Version
Psalm 12[a]
For the director of music. According to sheminith.[b] A psalm of David.
1 Help, Lord, for no one is faithful anymore;(A)
those who are loyal have vanished from the human race.
2 Everyone lies(B) to their neighbor;
they flatter with their lips
but harbor deception in their hearts.(C)
3 May the Lord silence all flattering lips(D)
and every boastful tongue—(E)
4 those who say,
“By our tongues we will prevail;(F)
our own lips will defend us—who is lord over us?”

Psalm 12
King James Version
12 Help, Lord; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.
2 They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak.
3 The Lord shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things:
4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?
5 For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the Lord; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him.
6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
7 Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
8 The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.
