2 Samuel 22:24 BBE

²²  For I have kept the ways of the Lord; I have not been turned away in sin from my God.

²³  For all his decisions were before me, and I did not put away his laws from me.

²⁴  And I was upright before him, and I kept myself from sin.

²⁵  Because of this the Lord has given me the reward of my righteousness, because my hands are clean in his eyes.

²⁶  On him who has mercy you will have mercy; to the upright you will be upright;
