Shmuel Bais 22:14-26 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

14. Hashem thundered from Shomayim, and Elyon uttered His voice.

15. He sent out khitzim, and scattered them; lightning, and vanquished them.

16. And the channels of the yam appeared, the mosedot (foundations) of the tevel (world) were uncovered, at the rebuking of Hashem, at the blast of the ruach of His nostrils.

17. He sent from on High, He took me; He drew me out of mayim rabbim;

18. He delivered me from my strong oyev, and from them that hated me; for they were too strong for me.

19. They confronted me in the day of my calamity; but Hashem was my support.

20. He brought me forth also into a large place; He delivered me, because chafetz (He delighted) in me.

21. Hashem rewarded me according to my tzedakah; according to the cleanness of my hands hath He recompensed me.

22. For I have been shomer over the drakhei Hashem, and have not wickedly departed from Elohai [see Ac 21:21].

23. For all His mishpatim were before me; as for His chukkot, I did not depart from them.

24. I was also tamim (blameless) before Him, and have kept myself from mine avon (iniquity).

25. Therefore Hashem hath rewarded me according to my tzedakah; according to my cleanness before His eyesight.

26. With the chasid (loyal, the one having chesed, the devout one) Thou wilt show Thyself loyal, and with the Gibbor tamim (blameless man) Thou wilt show Thyself blameless.
