ΨΑΛΜΟΙ - Salmi - Psalms 12

LXX	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 εις το τελος ψαλμος τω δαυιδ	1 Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.
2 εως ποτε κυριε επιληση μου εις τελος εως ποτε αποστρεψεις το προσωπον σου απ' εμου	2 They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak.
3 εως τινος θησομαι βουλας εν ψυχη μου οδυνας εν καρδια μου ημερας εως ποτε υψωθησεται ο εχθρος μου επ' εμε	3 The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things:
4 επιβλεψον εισακουσον μου κυριε ο θεος μου φωτισον τους οφθαλμους μου μηποτε υπνωσω εις θανατον	4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?
5 μηποτε ειπη ο εχθρος μου ισχυσα προς αυτον οι θλιβοντες με αγαλλιασονται εαν σαλευθω	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 εγω δε επι τω ελεει σου ηλπισα αγαλλιασεται η καρδια μου επι τω σωτηριω σου ασω τω κυριω τω ευεργετησαντι με και ψαλω τω ονοματι κυριου του υψιστου	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.
