Young's Literal Translation 1862
12:1 | To the Overseer, on the octave. -- A Psalm of David. Save, Jehovah, for the saintly hath failed, For the stedfast have ceased From the sons of men: |
12:2 | Vanity they speak each with his neighbour, Lip of flattery! With heart and heart they speak. |
12:3 | Jehovah doth cut off all lips of flattery, A tongue speaking great things, |
12:4 | Who said, `By our tongue we do mightily: Our lips `are' our own; who `is' lord over us?' |
12:5 | Because of the spoiling of the poor, Because of the groaning of the needy, Now do I arise, saith Jehovah, I set in safety `him who' doth breathe for it. |
12:6 | Sayings of Jehovah `are' pure sayings; Silver tried in a furnace of earth refined sevenfold. |
12:7 | Thou, O Jehovah, dost preserve them, Thou keepest us from this generation to the age. |
12:8 | Around the wicked walk continually, According as vileness is exalted by sons of men! |
Young's Literal Translation 1862
Young's Literal Translation is a translation of the Bible into English, published in 1862. The translation was made by Robert Young, compiler of Young's Analytical Concordance to the Bible and Concise Critical Comments on the New Testament. Young used the Textus Receptus and the Majority Text as the basis for his translation. He wrote in the preface to the first edition, "It has been no part of the Translator's plan to attempt to form a New Hebrew or Greek Text--he has therefore somewhat rigidly adhered to the received ones."
