2 Samuel 22:21-31

211The Lord has treated me in accordance with my righteousness; 2In accordance with the cleanliness of my hands He has repaid me.223For I have kept the ways of the Lord, And have not acted wickedly against my God.234For all His ordinances were before me, And as for His statutes, I did not deviate from 5them.246I was also 7blameless toward Him, And I have kept myself from my wrongdoing.258So the Lord has repaid me in accordance with my righteousness, In accordance with my cleanliness before His eyes.269With the one who is faithful You show Yourself faithful, With the 10blameless one You prove Yourself 11blameless;2712With the one who is pure You show Yourself pure, 13But with the perverted You 14show Yourself astute.2815And You save an afflicted people; 16But Your eyes are on the haughty whom You humiliate.2917For You are my lamp, Lord; And the Lord illuminates my darkness.3018For by You I can run at a 19troop of warriors; By my God I can leap over a wall.3120As for God, His way is 21blameless; 22The word of the Lord is refined; 23He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.
