24. Therefore the Lord has recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands before his eyes.
25. With the merciful thou wilt show thyself merciful; with a perfect man thou wilt show thyself perfect;
26. with the pure thou wilt show thyself pure; and with the perverse thou wilt show thyself adversary.
27. Therefore thou wilt save the humble people; but wilt bring down high looks.
28. For thou wilt light my fire: the Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.
29. For with thee I have scattered armies; and in my God I have overcome walled defenses.
