20. The Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness.According to the cleanness of my hands has he recompensed me.
21. For I have kept the ways of the Lord,and have not wickedly departed from my God.
22. For all his ordinances were before me.I didn’t put away his statutes from me.
23. I was also blameless with him.I kept myself from my iniquity.
24. Therefore the Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness,according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.
25. With the merciful you will show yourself merciful.With the perfect man, you will show yourself perfect.
26. With the pure, you will show yourself pure.With the crooked you will show yourself shrewd.
27. For you will save the afflicted people,but the arrogant eyes you will bring down.
28. For you will light my lamp, Lord.My God will light up my darkness.
29. For by you, I advance through a troop.By my God, I leap over a wall.
30. As for God, his way is perfect.the Lord’s word is tried.He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.
31. For who is God, except the Lord?Who is a rock, besides our God,
32. the God who arms me with strength, and makes my way perfect?
