Psalms 18:20-32 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

20. The Lord rewarded me for doing what is right. He was good to me because I am innocent.

21. The Lord did this because I have obeyed him. I have not turned against my God.

22. I always remembered his laws. I never rejected his rules.

23. He knows I did nothing that was wrong. I have kept myself from sinning.

24. So the Lord rewarded me for doing what is right. He could see that I am innocent.

25. Lord, you are faithful to those who are faithful. You are good to those who are good.

26. You never do wrong to those who have done no wrong. But you outsmart the wicked, no matter how clever they are.

27. You help those who are humble, but you humiliate the proud.

28. Lord, you provide the flame for my lamp. You, God, turn the darkness around me into light.

29. With your help I can defeat an army. If my God is with me, I can climb over enemy walls.

30. God’s way is perfect. The Lord’S promise always proves to be true. He protects those who trust in him.

31. There is no God except the Lord. There is no Rock except our God.

32. God is the one who gives me strength. He clears the path I need to take.
