26 With someone loyal you act in loyalty;+

With the blameless, mighty man, you deal blamelessly;+

27 With the pure you show yourself pure,+

But with the crooked you show yourself shrewd.*+

28 For you save those who are humble,+

But your eyes are against the haughty, and you abase them.+

29 For you are my lamp, O Jehovah;+

It is Jehovah who lights up my darkness.+

30 With your help I can charge against a marauder band;

By God’s power I can scale a wall.+

31 The way of the true God is perfect;+

The saying of Jehovah is refined.+

11 For he will reward a man according to what he does+

And bring upon him the consequences of his ways.
