Our impass with this passage has nothing to do with me correcting the KJV. I am simply challenging you to rethink your interpretation of this passage. I have supported my comments with all but one exception without going to the biblical languages on this one.

Read the context of Psalm 12 in the KJV.
Who is the subject throughout the Psalm?
What are they afraid of?
What does God promise?

I memorized Ephesians 2.8-9 when I was a child. It was not until I was in college that the meaning "jumped out at me" when I read the context. The same thing is happening here. KJVOnlys use Psalm 12.6-7 to support their position while ignoring the context.

Adopt the KJV translators approach which is quoted in my signature line...
