Psalms 18:24-28

²⁴Because of this the Lord has given me the reward of my righteousness, because my hands are clean in his eyes.

²⁵On him who has mercy you will have mercy; to the upright you will be upright;

²⁶He who is holy will see that you are holy; but to the man whose way is not straight you will be a hard judge.

²⁷For you are the saviour of those who are in trouble; but eyes full of pride will be made low.

²⁸You, O Lord, will be my light; by you, my God, the dark will be made bright for me.
