Psalms 18:28

Compare all

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.

28 ^aFor You will light my lamp;
The Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.

29 For by You I can¹ run against a troop,
By my God I can leap over a wall.

30 As for God, ^aHis way is perfect;
^bThe word of the Lord is¹ proven;
He is a shield ^cto all who trust in Him.

Psalms 18:28

For thou wilt light my candle - Thou wilt restore me to prosperity, and give me a happy issue out of all my afflictions. By the lamp of David the Messiah may be meant: thou wilt not suffer my family to become extinct, nor the kingdom which thou hast promised me utterly to fail.
