These five verses contrast ungodly speech with God's words. Which category have your words fallen into today--godly or ungodly? Here are the characteristics of ungodly speech: lies (even little "white" ones), flattery, deception, boasting, pride, independence from God, and talking badly about those weaker and needier (less intelligent, athletic, good-looking, well-off financially, or socially adept?) than we are. Godly speech, however, is flawless, refined, and pure.

Psalm 12:2, Psalm 12:3-5 and Psalm 12:6
