口滑舌夸者耶和华剪灭之

12 大卫的诗,交于伶长。调用第八。

耶和华啊,求你帮助,因虔诚人断绝了,世人中间的忠信人没有了。
人人向邻舍说谎,他们说话是嘴唇油滑,心口不一。
凡油滑的嘴唇和夸大的舌头,耶和华必要剪除。
他们曾说:“我们必能以舌头得胜,我们的嘴唇是我们自己的,谁能做我们的主呢?”
耶和华说:“因为困苦人的冤屈和贫穷人的叹息,我现在要起来,把他安置在他所切慕的稳妥之地。”
耶和华的言语是纯净的言语,如同银子在泥炉中炼过七次。
耶和华啊,你必保护他们,你必保佑他们永远脱离这世代的人。
下流人在世人中升高,就有恶人到处游行。

祈求 神保护脱离是非

大卫的诗,交给诗班长,调用“舍明尼”。

12 耶和华啊!求你施行拯救,因为虔诚人没有了,

在世人中的信实人也不见了。

他们彼此说谎,

用谄媚的嘴唇说话,口是心非。

愿耶和华剪除一切说谄媚话的嘴唇,

和说夸大话的舌头。

他们曾说:“我们必能以舌头取胜;

我们的嘴唇是自己的,谁能作我们的主呢?”

耶和华说:“因为困苦人的冤屈和贫穷人的叹息,

我现在要起来,把他们安置在他们渴望的稳妥之中。”

耶和华的言语是纯净的言语,

好象银子在泥炉中炼过,精炼过七次一样。

耶和华啊!求你保守我们,

保护我们(《马索拉文本》,“我们……我们”作“他们……他”;现参照其他抄本及《七十士译本》翻译)永远脱离这世代的人。

恶人到处横行,

邪恶在世人中被高举。

Salmo 12

Dios, protector del justo

Para el director del coro; sobre una lira de ocho cuerdas. Salmo de David.

12 Salva, Señor, porque el piadoso deja de ser(A);
Porque los fieles desaparecen de entre los hijos de los hombres.
Falsedad habla cada uno a su prójimo(B);
Hablan con labios lisonjeros(C) y con doblez de corazón.
Corte el Señor todo labio lisonjero,
La lengua que habla con exageración(D);
A los que han dicho: «Con nuestra lengua prevaleceremos,
Nuestros labios nos defienden; ¿quién es señor sobre nosotros(E)?».
«Por la desolación del afligido(F), por los gemidos del menesteroso,
Me levantaré ahora», dice el Señor(G); «lo pondré en la seguridad que anhela(H)».
¶Las palabras del Señor son palabras puras(I),
Plata probada(J) en un crisol en la tierra, siete veces refinada.
Tú, Señor, los guardarás;
De esta generación los preservarás para siempre(K).
Por todas partes se pasean los impíos(L),
Cuando la maldad es exaltada(M) entre los hijos de los hombres.

Psalm 12[a]

For the director of music. According to sheminith.[b] A psalm of David.

Help, Lord, for no one is faithful anymore;(A)
    those who are loyal have vanished from the human race.
Everyone lies(B) to their neighbor;
    they flatter with their lips
    but harbor deception in their hearts.(C)

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

“Because the poor are plundered(G) and the needy groan,(H)
    I will now arise,(I)” says the Lord.
    “I will protect them(J) from those who malign them.”
And the words of the Lord are flawless,(K)
    like silver purified(L) in a crucible,(M)
    like gold[c] refined seven times.

You, Lord, will keep the needy safe(N)
    and will protect us forever from the wicked,(O)
who freely strut(P) about
    when what is vile is honored by the human race.

12 Help, Lord; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.

They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak.

The Lord shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things:

Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?

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.

The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.

Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.

The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.
