Psalm 12:4-6
Holman Christian Standard Bible

4 They say, “Through our tongues we have power;[a]
our lips are our own—who can be our master?”(A)

5 “Because of the oppression of the afflicted
and the groaning of the poor,
I will now rise up,” says the Lord.
“I will put the one who longs for it in a safe place.”(B)

6 The words of the Lord are pure words,
like silver refined in an earthen furnace,
purified seven times.(C)

Psalm 12:4-6
King James Version

4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?

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 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
