25 With (A)the faithful You show Yourself faithful;
With the [a]blameless (B)You prove Yourself blameless;
26 With the pure You show Yourself (C)pure,
And with the crooked (D)You show Yourself [b]astute.
27 For You (E)save an afflicted people,
But You humiliate (F)haughty eyes.
28 For You (G)light my lamp;
The Lord my God (H)illumines my darkness.
29 For by You I can (I)run at a [c]troop of warriors;
And by my God I can (J)leap over a wall.

30 As for God, His way is [d](K)blameless;
The (L)word of the Lord is refined;
He is a (M)shield to all who take refuge in Him.
