Psalm 12
This is a song that David wrote for the music leader.
A prayer for help
All the good people have gone away!
No kind or
When they say nice things,
they do it to
When they deceive people or they
stop them doing that!
‘Nobody can tell us what to do!
We will say what we like to get what we want!’
‘Now I will do something!
I know the cruel things that wicked people do to poor people.
When weak people cry with pain, I hear them.
So I will make them safe,
as they want me to do for them.’
We can
because they are
They are as pure as
that people have put in a hot fire seven times.
You will always keep each one of them safe
from all those
then
