Part 2 of "In Psalm 12:6-7" Series: In Psalm 12:6, the CEB takes out "the words of the LORD (KJB) and replaces it with "the LORD's promises" (CEB).
Psalm 12:6-7 KJB
[6] The words of the LORD are pure words: As silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
[7] Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, Thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.β

Psalms 12:6-7 CEB
[6] The LORDβs promises are pure, like silver thatβs been refined in an oven, purified seven times over!
[7] You, LORD, will keep us, protecting us from this generation forever.βπ°
In verse 6, the KJB correctly keeps the word "preserve" and affirms that the LORD's words are preserved forever.
However, the CEB removes and attacks the doctrine of the preservation of God's word by replacing "preserve" with "protect".
Preserve means to keep, uphold, and save from corruption forever.
Protect means to cover or defend from danger and enemies.
There is a massive difference between the biblical word of "preserve" in Psalm 12:6-7 and the degrading word of "protect".
As per the KJB, God preserved His preserved, inspired words forever!
By changing "preserve" (KJB) to "protect" (CEB) in Psalms 12:6-7, the CEB subtily denies that God preserved His preserved words forever from being corrupted.
"Them" [refering to the LORD God's words] (KJB) is degraded to "us" in the CEB [us always refers to 2 or more people and does not refer to objects or written, preserved wordsπ°].
Comparsions in Psalms 12:6-7:
"them" (KJB) - refering to "the words of the LORD are pure words" [which matches and cross references with Matthew 24:35 and Isaiah 40:8] β
But the word "us" (CEB) refers to the "the poor" and "the needy" of Psalms 12:6-7, thus replacing "them" (KJB) with "us" (CEB) and destroying the valuable assurance of God's ability to preserve His words forever.π°
Every word matters! Modern versions often twist and replace key words to attack the preservation of God's word because those who made the modern versions sadly do not believe that God preserved His inspired words forever.
If you have a CEB, discard the CEB, and get and read the KJB.
Note: CEB stands for the "Common English Bible" which is a corrupt modern version.
