"You prove to be reliable to one who is blameless, but you prove to be deceptive to one who is perverse."
— Psalms 18:26, NET Bible®
I was innocent before him, and kept myself from sinning.
The LORD rewarded me for my godly deeds; he took notice of my blameless behavior.
You prove to be loyal to one who is faithful; you prove to be trustworthy to one who is innocent.
You prove to be reliable to one who is blameless, but you prove to be deceptive to one who is perverse.
For you deliver oppressed people, but you bring down those who have a proud look.
Indeed, you light my lamp, LORD. My God illuminates the darkness around me.
Indeed, with your help I can charge against an army; by my God’s power I can jump over a wall.
