23. For all His judgments are before me,and I have not abandoned His statutes.
24. I am blameless toward Him,and I have kept myself from guilt.
25. The Lord has recompensed me according to my righteousness,according to my cleanness in His sight.
26. With the faithful You prove Yourself faithful;with the blameless You prove Yourself blameless;
27. with the pure You show Yourself pure;but with the perverse You show Yourself shrewd.
28. You deliver a humble people;but Your eyes are upon the exalted to bring them down.
29. For You are my lamp, O Lord;the Lord illuminates my darkness.
30. For by You I can run over a channel;by my God I can leap over a wall.
31. As for God, His way is perfect;the word of the Lord is proven;He is a shieldfor all who take refuge in Him.
32. For who is God except the Lord?And who is a rock except our God?
33. God is my strong fortress,and He sets the blameless on His way.
34. He makes my feet like hinds’ feet;He sets me on my high places.
35. He trains my hand for battle,so that my arm may bend a bow of bronze.
36. You have given me a shield of Your salvation,and Your humility has made me great.
37. You widen my stride under me,and my feet do stagger.
38. I pursued my enemies and destroyed them;I did not turn back until they were consumed.
39. I consumed them and shattered them so that they did not rise;they fell under my feet.
40. You girded me with strength for the battle;You subjugated under me those who rose up against me.
41. You caused my enemies to retreat from me;I destroyed those who hated me.
42. They looked, but there was no one to save them,to the Lord, but He did not respond.
