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:

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

For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness;
his countenance doth behold the upright.

Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone,
and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.

The LORD trieth the righteous:
but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.

If the foundations be destroyed,
what can the righteous do?
The LORD is in his holy temple,
the LORD's throne is in heaven:
his eyes behold,
his eyelids try, the children of men.

In the LORD put I my trust:
how say ye to my soul,
Flee as a bird to your mountain?
For, lo, the wicked bend their bow,
they make ready their arrow upon the string,
that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.

The LORD is King for ever and ever:
the heathen are perished out of his land.
LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble:
thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:

Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite,
to requite it with thy hand:
the poor committeth himself unto thee;
thou art the helper of the fatherless.
Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man:
seek out his wickedness till thou find none.

Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up thine hand:
forget not the humble.
Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God?
he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it.
