18He delivered me from my strong enemy, From them that hated me; For they were mightier than I. 19They encountered me in the day of my calamity; But Jehovah was my stay. And he brought me forth into a large place; He delivered me, because he delighted in me. 21Jehovah hath rewarded me according to my righteousness, According to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me. 22For I have kept the ways of Jehovah, And have not wickedly departed from my God.
