Verse
Psalms - ch 18 v 21 - 40
- For I have kept the ways of Yahweh, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
- For all his ordinances were before me. I didn't put away his statutes from me.
- I was also blameless with him. I kept myself from my iniquity.
- Therefore Yahweh has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.
- With the merciful you will show yourself merciful. With the perfect man, you will show yourself perfect.
- With the pure, you will show yourself pure. With the crooked you will show yourself shrewd.
- For you will save the afflicted people, but the haughty eyes you will bring down.
- For you will light my lamp, Yahweh. My God will light up my darkness.
- For by you, I advance through a troop. By my God, I leap over a wall.
- As for God, his way is perfect. The word of Yahweh is tried. He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.
- For who is God, except Yahweh? Who is a rock, besides our God,
- the God who arms me with strength, and makes my way perfect?
- He makes my feet like deer's feet, and sets me on my high places.
- He teaches my hands to war, so that my arms bend a bow of bronze.
- You have also given me the shield of your salvation. Your right hand sustains me. Your gentleness has made me great.
- You have enlarged my steps under me, My feet have not slipped.
- I will pursue my enemies, and overtake them. Neither will I turn again until they are consumed.
- I will strike them through, so that they will not be able to rise. They shall fall under my feet.
- For you have girded me with strength to the battle. You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.
- You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, that I might cut off those who hate me.
