诗篇 12
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
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。
2 他们彼此说谎，
用谄媚的嘴唇说话，口是心非。
3 愿耶和华剪除一切说谄媚话的嘴唇，
和说夸大话的舌头。
4 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？”
5 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。”
6 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。
7 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。
8 恶人到处横行，
邪恶在世人中被高举。
Psalm 12
New King James Version
Man’s Treachery and God’s Constancy
To the Chief Musician. (A)On [a]an eight-stringed harp. A Psalm of David.
12 Help,[b] Lord, for the godly man (B)ceases!
For the faithful disappear from among the sons of men.
2 (C)They speak idly everyone with his neighbor;
With flattering lips and [c]a double heart they speak.
3 May the Lord [d]cut off all flattering lips,
And the tongue that speaks [e]proud things,
4 Who have said,
“With our tongue we will 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 I will arise,” says the Lord;
“I will set him in the safety for which he yearns.”
6 The words of the Lord are (D)pure words,
Like silver tried in a furnace of earth,
Purified seven times.
7 You shall keep them, O Lord,
You shall preserve them from this generation forever.
8 The wicked prowl on every side,
When vileness is exalted among the sons of men.

Psalm 12
English Standard Version
The Faithful Have Vanished
To the choirmaster: according to The Sheminith.[a] A Psalm of David.
12 Save, O Lord, for (A)the godly one is gone;
for the faithful have vanished from among the children of man.
2 Everyone (B)utters lies to his neighbor;
with (C)flattering lips and (D)a double heart they speak.
3 May the Lord cut off all (E)flattering lips,
the tongue that makes (F)great boasts,
4 those who say, “With our tongue we will prevail,
our lips are with us; who is master over us?”
5 “Because (G)the poor are plundered, because the needy groan,
(H)I will now arise,” says the Lord;
“I will place him in the (I)safety for which he longs.”
6 (J)The words of the Lord are pure words,
like silver refined in a furnace on the ground,
purified seven times.
7 You, O Lord, will keep them;
you will guard us[b] from this generation forever.
8 On every side the wicked prowl,
as vileness is exalted among the children of man.
