^27 (A)Let them shout for joy and be glad,
Who favor my righteous cause;
And let them say continually,
“Let the Lord be magnified,
Who has pleasure in the prosperity of His servant.”

^16 (A)He sent from above, He took me;
He drew me out of many waters.
¹⁷ He delivered me from my strong enemy,
From those who hated me,
For they were too strong for me.
¹⁸ They confronted me in the day of my calamity,
But the Lord was my support.
^19 (B)He also brought me out into a broad place;
He delivered me because He delighted in me.

^20 (C)The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness;
According to the cleanness of my hands
He has recompensed me.
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 blameless ^[a]before Him,
And I kept myself from my iniquity.
^24 (D)Therefore the Lord has recompensed me according to my righteousness,
According to the cleanness of my hands in His sight.

^25 (E)With 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 ^(F)with the devious You will show Yourself shrewd.
²⁷ For You will save the humble people,
But will bring down ^(G)haughty looks.

^28 (H)For You will light my lamp;
The Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.
