4 They say, “Our tongues will help us win.We can say what we wish; no one is our master.”
5 But the Lord says,“I will now rise up,because the poor are being hurt.Because of the moans of the helpless,I will give them the help they want.”
6 The Lord’s words are pure,like silver purified by fire,like silver purified seven times over.
7 Lord, you will keep us safe;you will always protect us from such people.
8 But the wicked are all around us;everyone loves what is wrong.
