16He stretched forth his hand from above; he took me, And drew me out of deep waters.
17He delivered me from my strong enemy; From my adversaries, who were too powerful for me.
18They fell upon me in the day of my calamity; But the LORD was my stay.
19He brought me forth into a large place; He delivered me, because he delighted in me.
20The LORD hath rewarded me according to my righteous; According to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.
21For I have kept the ways of the LORD, And have not wickedly departed from my God.
22For all his laws were in my sight; I did not put away his statutes from me.
23I was upright before him, And kept myself from iniquity.
24Therefore hath the LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness, According to the cleanness of my hands before his eyes.
25To the merciful thou showest thyself merciful; To the upright thou showest thyself upright;
26To the pure thou showest thyself pure, And to the perverse thou showest thyself perverse.
27For thou savest the afflicted people, But the haughty countenance thou bringest down.
28Thou causest my lamp to shine; Jehovah, my God, enlighteneth my darkness.
29For through thee I have broken through troops; Through my God I have leaped over walls.
30The ways of God are just and true; His word is pure, tried in the fire; He is a shield to all who put their trust in him.
31Who, then, is God, save Jehovah? And who is a rock, save our God?
32It is God that girded me with strength, And made my way plain.
33He made my feet like the hind's, And set me in my high places;
34He taught my hands to war, So that my arm bent the bow of brass.
35Thou gavest me the shield of thy protection; Thy right hand held me up, And thy goodness made me great.
36Thou didst make a wide path for my steps, So that my feet did not stumble.
37I pursued my enemies and overtook them, And turned not back till I had destroyed them.
38I smote them, so that they could not rise; They fell under my feet.
39Thou didst gird me with strength for the battle; Thou didst cast down my adversaries under me.
