Salmo 12
Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)

Panalangin para Tulungan ng Dios

12 Panginoon, tulungan nʼyo po kami,
    dahil wala nang makadios,
    at wala na ring may paninindigan.
2 Nagsisinungaling sila sa kanilang kapwa.
    Nambobola sila para makapandaya ng iba.
3 Panginoon, patigilin nʼyo na sana ang mga mayayabang at mambobola.
4 Sinasabi nila,
    “Sa pamamagitan ng aming pananalita ay magtatagumpay kami.
    Sasabihin namin ang gusto naming sabihin,
    at walang sinumang makakapigil sa amin.”

5 Sinabi ng Panginoon,
    “Kikilos ako! Nakikita ko ang kaapihan ng mga dukha,
    at naririnig ko ang iyakan ng mga naghihirap.
    Kayaʼt ibibigay ko sa kanila ang pinapangarap nilang kaligtasan.”
6 Ang pangako ng Panginoon ay purong katotohanan,
    gaya ng purong pilak na pitong ulit na nasubukan sa nagliliyab na pugon.

7 Panginoon, nalalaman namin na kami ay inyong iingatan,
    at ilalayo sa masamang henerasyong ito magpakailanman.
8 Pinalibutan nila kami,
    at pinupuri pa ng lahat ang kanilang kasuklam-suklam na gawain.

Psalm 12
Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

Oppression by the Wicked

For the choir director: according to Sheminith.(A) A psalm of David.

12 Help, Lord, for no faithful one remains;
the loyal have disappeared from the human race.[a](B)
2 They lie to one another;
they speak with flattering lips and deceptive hearts.(C)
3 May the Lord cut off all flattering lips
and the tongue that speaks boastfully.(D)
4 They say, ‘Through our tongues we have power;
our lips are our own – who can be our master? ’(E)

5 ‘Because of the devastation of the needy
and the groaning of the poor,
I will now rise up,’ says the Lord.
‘I will provide safety for the one who longs for it.’(F)

6 The words of the Lord are pure words,
like silver refined in an earthen furnace,
purified seven times.(G)

7 You, Lord, will guard us;[b]
you will protect us[c] from this generation for ever.(H)
8 The wicked prowl[d] all around,
and what is worthless is exalted by the human race.(I)

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.

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?”

5 “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.”
6 And the words of the Lord are flawless,(K)
    like silver purified(L) in a crucible,(M)
    like gold[c] refined seven times.

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