20 The Lord dealt with me (A)according to my righteousness;
    according to (B)the cleanness of my hands he rewarded me.
21 For I have (C)kept the ways of the Lord,
    and have not wickedly departed from my God.
22 For (D)all his rules[a] were before me,
    and his statutes I did not put away from me.
23 I was (E)blameless before him,
    and I kept myself from my guilt.
24 So the Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness,
    according to the cleanness of my hands in his sight.
