23. I was also upright before him, and I kept myself from my iniquity.
24. Therefore hath the LORD recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his sight.
25. With the merciful thou wilt show thyself merciful; with an upright man thou wilt show thyself upright;
26. With the pure thou wilt show thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt contend.
27. For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but wilt bring down high looks.
28. For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness.
29. For by thee I have run through a troop; and by my God have I leaped over a wall.
30. As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.
31. For who is God save the LORD? or who is a rock save our God?
32. It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.
33. He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and setteth me upon my high places.
34. He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by my arms.
