2 Samuel 22:22

18He delivered me from my strong enemy, from those who hated me, for they were too mighty for me.

19They came on me in the day of my calamity, but the LORD was my support.

20He also brought me out into a large place. He delivered me, because he delighted in me.

21The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness. He rewarded me according to the cleanness of my hands.

22For I have kept the LORD’s ways, and have not wickedly departed from my God.

23For all his ordinances were before me. As for his statutes, I didn’t depart from them.

24I was also perfect toward him. I kept myself from my iniquity.

25Therefore the LORD has rewarded me according to my righteousness, According to my cleanness in his eyesight.

26With the merciful you will show yourself merciful. With the perfect man you will show yourself perfect.
