22. I have lived the way the Lord wanted me to. I haven't done evil by turning away from my God.
23. I keep all of his laws in mind. I haven't turned away from his commands.
24. He knows that I am without blame. He knows I've kept myself from sinning.
25. The Lord has rewarded me for doing what is right. He has rewarded me because I haven't done anything wrong.
26. "Lord, to those who are faithful you show that you are faithful. To those who are without blame you show that you are without blame.
27. To those who are pure you show that you are pure. But to those whose paths are crooked you show that you are clever.
28. You save those who aren't proud. But you watch the proud to bring them down.
