1. Help, Lord! Those who do what is right are gone. Those who are faithful have disappeared from the earth.
2. Everyone tells lies to his neighbors. With his lips he praises others, but he doesn't really mean it.
3. May the Lord cut off all lips that don't mean what they say. May he cut out every tongue that brags.
4. They say, "We will win the battle with our tongues. Our lips belong to us. No one else is in charge of us."
