New American Standard Bible
Chapter 22
24I was also blameless toward Him, And I have kept myself from my wrongdoing. 25So the Lord has repaid me in accordance with my righteousness, In accordance with my cleanliness before His eyes. 26With the one who is faithful You show Yourself faithful, With the blameless one You prove Yourself blameless; 27With the one who is pure You show Yourself pure, But with the perverted You show Yourself astute. 28And You save an afflicted people; But Your eyes are on the haughty whom You humiliate.King James Version

25So the Lord repaid me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness in his sight.
26With the faithful you prove yourself faithful, with the blameless you prove yourself blameless,
27with the pure you prove yourself pure; but with the crooked you prove yourself shrewd.
28You rescue an oppressed people, but your eyes are set against the proud— you humble them.

24I was blameless before him, and I kept myself from guilt. 25 And the Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness in his sight. 26 "With the merciful you show yourself merciful; with the blameless man you show yourself blameless; 27with the purified you deal purely, and with the crooked you make yourself seem tortuous. 28 You save a humble people, but your eyes are on the haughty to bring them down.New International Version

26"To the faithful you show yourself faithful, to the blameless you show yourself blameless,
27to the pure you show yourself pure, but to the devious you show yourself shrewd.
28You save the humble, but your eyes are on the haughty to bring them low.
