2 Samuel 22:22-28
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 22
22For I have kept the ways of the Lord, And have not acted wickedly against my God. 23For all His ordinances were before me, And as for His statutes, I did not deviate from them. 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
Chapter 22
22For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God. 23For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them. 24I was also upright before him, and have kept myself from mine iniquity. 25Therefore the LORD hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight. 26With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful, and with the upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright. 27With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself unsavoury. 28And the afflicted people thou wilt save: but thine eyes are upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down.Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 22
22For I have kept the ways of the Lord and have not turned from my God to wickedness. 23Indeed, I let all his ordinances guide me and have not disregarded his statutes. 24I was blameless before him and kept myself from my iniquity.
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.

Chapter 22
22For I have kept the ways of the LORD and have not wickedly departed from my God. 23For all his rules were before me, and from his statutes I did not turn aside. 24I was blameless before him, and I kept myself from guilt. 25And 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. 28You save a humble people, but your eyes are on the haughty to bring them down.New International Version
Chapter 22
22For I have kept the ways of the LORD; I am not guilty of turning from my God. 23All his laws are before me; I have not turned away from his decrees. 24I have been blameless before him and have kept myself from sin.
25The LORD has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness in his sight.
26To 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.
