2 Samuel 22:21-32 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

21. The Lord rewarded meaccording to my righteousness; He repaid meaccording to the cleanness of my hands.

22. For I have kept the ways of the Lord and have not turned from my God to wickedness.

23. Indeed, I have kept all His ordinances in mind and have not disregarded His statutes.

24. I was blameless before Himand kept myself from sinning.

25. So the Lord repaid meaccording to my righteousness,according to my cleanness in His sight.

26. With the faithfulYou prove Yourself faithful;with the blameless manYou prove Yourself blameless;

27. with the pureYou prove Yourself pure,but with the crookedYou prove Yourself shrewd.

28. You rescue an afflicted people, but Your eyes are set against the proud —You humble them.

29. Lord, You are my lamp;the Lord illuminates my darkness.

30. With You I can attack a barrier, and with my God I can leap over a wall.

31. God — His way is perfect; the word of the Lord is pure. He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.

32. For who is God besides the Lord?And who is a rock? Only our God.
