22
For all His judgments were before me, And I did not put away His statutes from me.
23
I was also blameless before Him, And I kept myself from my iniquity.
24
Therefore the Lord has recompensed me according to my righteousness, According to the cleanness of my hands in His sight.
25
With the merciful You will show Yourself merciful; With a blameless man You will show Yourself blameless;
26
With the pure You will show Yourself pure; And with the devious You will show Yourself shrewd.
27
For You will save the humble people, But will bring down haughty looks.
28
For You will light my lamp; The Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.
29
For by You I can run against a troop, By my God I can leap over a wall.
30
As for God, His way is perfect; The word of the Lord is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him.
31
For who is God, except the Lord? And who is a rock, except our God?
32
It is God who arms me with strength, And makes my way perfect.
