"The words of the LORD are pure words: like silver that is tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. You shall keep them, O LORD, you shall preserve them from this generation forever. The wicked prowl on every side, when vileness is exalted among the sons." Psalm 12:6-8
"This generation" is referring to the wicked, which simply means "the wrong." They are wrong because they are not "right" with God.

Men are declared righteous by God when, through His grace, they place faith in Him, and as of result of trusting Him and His promise they entrust their lives to Him. As Psalm 14:5 "...For God is with the generation of the righteous."
