26With the pure you show yourself pure, but shrewd with the devious.
27For the lowly people you save, but haughty eyes you abase.
28You are my lamp, Lord, my God who enlightens my darkness.
29With you I can storm a rampart, with my God I can leap a wall.
30As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is pure. He is shield to all who take refuge in him.
31For who is God but the Lord? And who is a rock but our God?
32The God who arms me with strength, who cleared and smoothed my way.
33He made my feet like hinds' feet, and set me up on the heights.
34He taught my hands how to fight, and my arms how to bend a bronze bow.
35The shield of your help you gave me, your right hand supports me, you stoop down to make me great.
36In your strength I took giant strides, and my feet never slipped.
37So I chased the foe till I caught them, and turned not, till I made an end of them.
38I smashed them, they could not rise, they fell beneath my feet.
39You did arm me with strength for war, you did bow my assailants beneath me.
40You made my foes turn their back to me, and those who did hate me I finished.
41They cried for help, but none saved them; to the Lord, but he answered them not.
42I beat them like dust of the market-place, stamped them like mud of the streets.
