Psalms 18:23
Compare all
21 For I have kept the ways of the Lord,
And have not wickedly departed from my God.
22 For all His judgments were before me,
And I did not put away His statutes from me.
23 I was also blameless1 before Him,
And I kept myself from my iniquity. 
24 aTherefore the Lord has recompensed me according to my righteousness,
According to the cleanness of my hands in His sight. 
25 aWith the merciful You will show Yourself merciful;
With a blameless man You will show Yourself blameless; 
26 With the pure You will show Yourself pure;
And awith the devious You will show Yourself shrewd. 
27 For You will save the humble people,
But will bring down ahaughty looks.
