22 because I have kept the ways of the Lordand I have not wickedly turned away from my God,
23 because all his judgments are in front of meand I have not turned away from his laws.
24 I was innocent as far as he was concerned.I have kept myself from guilt.
25 The Lord paid me backbecause of my righteousness,because he can see that I am clean.
26 ⌊In dealing⌋ with faithful people you are faithful,with innocent warriors you are innocent,
27 with pure people you are pure.⌊In dealing⌋ with devious people you are clever.
28 You save humble people,but your eyes bring down arrogant people.
