24. Therefore hath the LORD recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his sight.
25. With the merciful thou wilt show thyself merciful; with an upright man thou wilt show thyself upright;
26. With the pure thou wilt show thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt contend.
27. For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but wilt bring down high looks.
28. For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness.
