23I was also perfect with him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity.
24Therefore hath the LORD recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.
25With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful; with the perfect man thou wilt shew thyself perfect;
26With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the perverse thou wilt shew thyself froward.
27For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but the haughty eyes thou wilt bring down.
28For thou wilt light my lamp: the LORD my God will lighten my darkness.
