2 Samuel 22:21-33 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

21. "The Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness; According to the cleanness of my hands He has recompensed me.

22. "For I have kept the ways of the Lord, And have not acted wickedly against my God.

23. "For all His ordinances were before me, And as for His statutes, I did not depart from them.

24. "I was also blameless toward Him, And I kept myself from my iniquity.

25. "Therefore the Lord has recompensed me according to my righteousness, According to my cleanness before His eyes.

26. "With the kind You show Yourself kind, With the blameless You show Yourself blameless;

27. With the pure You show Yourself pure, And with the perverted You show Yourself astute.

28. "And You save an afflicted people; But Your eyes are on the haughty whom You abase.

29. "For You are my lamp, O Lord; And the Lord illumines my darkness.

30. "For by You I can run upon a troop; By my God I can leap over a wall.

31. "As for God, His way is blameless; The word of the Lord is tested; He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.

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

33. "God is my strong fortress; And He sets the blameless in His way.
