Psalms 18:18-35 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

18. He saved me from my powerful enemy, from those who hated me— for they were much stronger than me.

19. They came against me in my day of calamity, but Adonai was my support.

20. He brought me out to a wide-open place. He rescued me since He delighted in me.

21. Adonai rewarded me for my righteousness. For the cleanness of my hands He repaid me.

22. For I kept the ways of Adonai, and did not turn wickedly from my God.

23. For all His judgments are before me. I do not put His rulings away from me.

24. I also had integrity with Him, and kept myself from my sin.

25. So Adonai rewarded me for my righteousness, for the cleanness of my hands in His eyes.

26. With the loyal You deal loyally. With the blameless You are blameless.

27. With the pure You are pure, and with the crooked You are shrewd.

28. For You save lowly people, but haughty eyes You humble.

29. For You light up my lamp. Adonai my God shines in my darkness.

30. For with You I rush on a troop, with my God I scale a wall.

31. As for God, His way is perfect. The word of Adonai is pure. He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.

32. For who is God, except Adonai? And who is a Rock, except our God?

33. God girds me with strength and makes my way straight.

34. He makes my feet like those of deer and makes me stand on my heights.

35. He trains my hands for battle, so my arms can bend a bronze bow.
