Psalm 12:5-13:2
New International Version
Psalm 12:5-13:2
New International Version
5 “Because the poor are plundered(A) and the needy groan,(B)
I will now arise,(C)” says the Lord.
“I will protect them(D) from those who malign them.”
6 And the words of the Lord are flawless,(E)
like silver purified(F) in a crucible,(G)
like gold[a] refined seven times.
7 You, Lord, will keep the needy safe(H)
and will protect us forever from the wicked,(I)
8 who freely strut(J) about
when what is vile is honored by the human race.
Psalm 13[b]
For the director of music. A psalm of David.
