Psalms 18:22-29

²²For all his ordinances were before me, And I put not away his statutes from me.

²³I was also perfect with him, And I kept myself from mine iniquity.

²⁴Therefore hath Jehovah recompensed me according to my righteousness, According to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.

²⁵With the merciful thou wilt show thyself merciful; With the perfect man thou wilt show thyself perfect;

²⁶With the pure thou wilt show thyself pure; And with the perverse thou wilt show thyself froward.

²⁷For thou wilt save the afflicted people; But the haughty eyes thou wilt bring down.

²⁸For thou wilt light my lamp: Jehovah my God will lighten my darkness.

²⁹For by thee I run upon a troop; And by my God do I leap over a wall.
