2 Samuel 22:21-31

21The Lord repaid me for my godly deeds; he rewarded my blameless behavior.

22For I have obeyed the Lord’s commands; I have not rebelled against my God.

23For I am aware of all his regulations, and I do not reject his rules.

24I was blameless before him; I kept myself from sinning.

25The Lord rewarded me for my godly deeds; he took notice of my blameless behavior.

26You prove to be loyal to one who is faithful; you prove to be trustworthy to one who is innocent.

27You prove to be reliable to one who is blameless, but you prove to be deceptive to one who is perverse.

28You deliver oppressed people, but you watch the proud and bring them down.

29Indeed, you are my lamp, Lord. The Lord illumines the darkness around me.

30Indeed,with your help I can charge against an army; by my God’s power I can jump over a wall.

31The one true God acts in a faithful manner; the Lord’s promise is reliable; he is a shield to all who take shelter in him.
