2 Samuel 22:26-37

New King James Version

²⁶ “With ^(A)the merciful You will show Yourself merciful;
With a blameless man You will show Yourself blameless;
²⁷ With the pure You will show Yourself pure;
And ^(B)with the devious You will show Yourself shrewd.
²⁸ You will save the ^(C)humble^[a] people;
But Your eyes are on ^(D)the haughty, that You may bring them down.

²⁹ “For You are my ^(E)lamp, O Lord;
The Lord shall enlighten my darkness.
³⁰ For by You I can run against a troop;
By my God I can leap over a ^(F)wall.
³¹ As for God, ^(G)His way is perfect;
^(H)The word of the Lord is proven;
He is a shield to all who trust in Him.

³² “For ^(I)who is God, except the Lord?
And who is a rock, except our God?
^33 [b]God is my ^(J)strength and power,
And He ^(K)makes ^[c]my way ^(L)perfect.
³⁴ He makes ^[d]my feet ^(M)like the feet of deer,
And ^(N)sets me on my high places.
³⁵ He teaches my hands ^[e]to make war,
So that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.

³⁶ “You have also given me the shield of Your salvation;
Your gentleness has made me great.
³⁷ You ^(O)enlarged my path under me;
So my feet did not slip.
