David decries flattering lips and proud tongues—He says: The words of the Lord are pure words.

 HELP, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.

 They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a ^adouble^• heart do they speak.

 The LORD shall cut off all ^aflattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things:

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

 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.

 The ^awords^• of the LORD are ^bpure^• words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.

 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.

 The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.
