Psalm 12:2-4
New International Version

2 Everyone lies(A) to their neighbor;
    they flatter with their lips
    but harbor deception in their hearts.(B)

3 May the Lord silence all flattering lips(C)
    and every boastful tongue—(D)
4 those who say,
    “By our tongues we will prevail;(E)
    our own lips will defend us—who is lord over us?”
