“Sayings of YHWH [are] pure sayings—Silver tried in a furnace of earth, refined sevenfold.”— Psalms 12:6 (LSV)
3YHWH cuts off all lips of flattery, || A tongue speaking great things,
4Who said, “By our tongue we do mightily: Our lips [are] our own; who [is] lord over us?”
5Because of the spoiling of the poor, || Because of the groaning of the needy, || Now I arise, says YHWH, || I set in safety [him who] breathes for it.
6Sayings of YHWH [are] pure sayings—Silver tried in a furnace of earth, refined sevenfold.
7You, O YHWH, preserve them, || You keep us from this generation for all time.
8The wicked walk around continually, || According as vileness is exalted by sons of men!
