Psalms 12:5

³ May the LORD cut off all flattering lips and every boastful tongue.

⁴ They say, “With our tongues we will prevail. We own our lips—who can be our master?”

“For the cause of the oppressed and for the groaning of the needy, I will now arise,” says the LORD. “I will bring safety to him who yearns.”

⁶ The words of the LORD are flawless, like silver refined in a furnace, like gold purified sevenfold.

⁷ You, O LORD, will keep us; You will forever guard us from this generation.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
