25 (A)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 (B)with the devious You will show Yourself shrewd.
27 For You will save the humble people,
But will bring down (C)haughty looks.

28 (D)For You will light my lamp;
The Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.
29 For by You I can [a]run against a troop,
By my God I can leap over a wall.
30 As for God, (E)His way is perfect;
(F)The word of the Lord is [b]proven;
He is a shield (G)to all who trust in Him.
