2 Samuel 22:22-27
New King James Version
22 For I have (A)kept the ways of the Lord,
And have not wickedly departed from my God.
23 For all His (B)judgments were before me;
And as for His statutes, I did not depart from them.
24 I was also (C)blameless before Him,
And I kept myself from my iniquity.
25 Therefore (D)the Lord has [a]recompensed me according to my righteousness,
According to [b]my cleanness in His eyes.
26 “With (E)the merciful You will show Yourself merciful;
With a blameless man You will show Yourself blameless;
27 With the pure You will show Yourself pure;
And (F)with the devious You will show Yourself shrewd.
