2 Samuel 22:24-36 Webster Bible Translation (WBT)

24. I was also upright before him, and have kept myself from my iniquity.

25. Therefore the LORD hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye-sight.

26. With the merciful thou wilt show thyself merciful, and with the upright man thou wilt show thyself upright.

27. With the pure thou wilt show thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt contend.

28. And the afflicted people thou wilt save: but thy eyes are upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down.

29. For thou art my lamp, O LORD: and the LORD will lighten my darkness.

30. For by thee I have run through a troop: by my God have I leaped over a wall.

31. As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.

32. For who is God, save the LORD? and who is a rock, save our God?

33. God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.

34. He maketh my feet like hinds' feet: and setteth me upon my high places.

35. He teacheth my hands to war; so that a bow of steel is broken by my arms.

36. Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy gentleness hath made me great.
