 Revised Standard VersionPsalms:12 Biblia Hebraica (Stuttgartensia) | BHS (pdf - 3.5mb)  

[To the choirmaster: according to The Sheminith. A Psalm of David.] Help Me O Lord!. Psalm 12(v11)לַמְנַצֵּחַ עַל־הַשְּׁמִינִית מִזְמֹור לְדָוִד׃
1 Help, LORD; for there is no longer any that is godly;
for the faithful have vanished from among the sons of men.
 הֹושִׁיעָה יְהוָה כִּי־גָמַר חָסִיד כִּי־פַסּוּ אֱמוּנִים מִבְּנֵי אָדָם׃
2 Every one utters lies to his neighbor;
with flattering lips and a double heart they speak.
 שָׁוְא יְדַבְּרוּ אִישׁ אֶת־רֵעֵהוּ שְׂפַת חֲלָקֹות בְּלֵב וָלֵב יְדַבֵּרוּ׃
3 May the LORD cut off all flattering lips,
the tongue that makes great boasts,
 יַכְרֵת יְהוָה כָּל־שִׂפְתֵי חֲלָקֹות לָשֹׁון מְדַבֶּרֶת גְּדֹלֹות׃
4 those who say, "With our tongue we will prevail,
our lips are with us; who is our master?"
 אֲשֶׁר אָמְרוּ לִלְשֹׁנֵנוּ נַגְבִּיר שְׂפָתֵינוּ אִתָּנוּ מִי אָדֹון לָנוּ׃
5 "Because the poor are despoiled, because the needy groan,
I will now arise," says the LORD;
"I will place him in the safety for which he longs."
 מִשֹּׁד עֲנִיִּים מֵאַנְקַת אֶבְיֹונִים עַתָּה אָקוּם יֹאמַר יְהוָה אָשִׁית בְּיֵשַׁע יָפִיחַ לֹו׃
6 The promises of the LORD are promises that are pure,
silver refined in a furnace on the ground, purified seven times.
 אִמֲרֹות יְהוָה אֲמָרֹות טְהֹרֹות כֶּסֶף צָרוּף בַּעֲלִיל לָאָרֶץ מְזֻקָּק שִׁבְעָתָיִם׃
7 Do thou, O LORD, protect us,
guard us ever from this generation.
 אַתָּה־יְהוָה תִּשְׁמְרֵם תִּצְּרֶנּוּ מִן־הַדֹּור זוּ לְעֹולָם׃
8 On every side the wicked prowl,
as vileness is exalted among the sons of men.
 סָבִיב רְשָׁעִים יִתְהַלָּכוּן כְּרֻם זֻלּוּת לִבְנֵי אָדָם׃
