18. He rescued me from my powerful enemies,from those who hated me and were too strong for me.
19. They attacked me at a moment when I was in distress,but the lord supported me.
20. He led me to a place of safety;he rescued me because he delights in me.
21. The lord rewarded me for doing right;he restored me because of my innocence.
22. For I have kept the ways of the lord;I have not turned from my God to follow evil.
23. I have followed all his regulations;I have never abandoned his decrees.
24. I am blameless before God;I have kept myself from sin.
