Psalms 12:6-9 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

6. “Because they rob the weak, and the needy groan,I will now arise,” says the Lord;“I will grant safety to whoever longs for it.”

7. The promises of the Lord are sure,silver refined in a crucible,silver purified seven times.

8. You, O Lord, protect us always;preserve us from this generation.

9. On every side the wicked roam;the shameless are extolled by the children of men.
