21 The Lord rewarded me after my righteous dealing; ♦︎
according to the cleanness of my hands he recompensed me,
22 Because I had kept the ways of the Lord ♦︎
and had not gone wickedly away from my God,
23 For I had an eye to all his laws, ♦︎
and did not cast out his commandments from me.
24 I was also wholehearted before him ♦︎
and kept myself from iniquity;
25 Therefore the Lord rewarded me
after my righteous dealing, ♦︎
and according to the cleanness of my hands in his sight.
26 With the faithful you show yourself faithful; ♦︎
with the true you show yourself true;
27 With the pure you show yourself pure, ♦︎
but with the crooked you show yourself perverse.
28 For you will save a lowly people ♦︎
and bring down the high looks of the proud.
29 You also shall light my candle; ♦︎
the Lord my God shall make my darkness to be bright.
30 By your help I shall run at an enemy host; ♦︎
with the help of my God I can leap over a wall.
31 As for God, his way is perfect;
the word of the Lord is tried in the fire; ♦︎
he is a shield to all who trust in him.
