2 Samuel 22:27 In-Context

25 So the LORD has repaid me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness in His sight.

26 To the faithful You show Yourself faithful, to the blameless You show Yourself blameless;

27 to the pure You show Yourself pure, but to the crooked You show Yourself shrewd.

28 You save an afflicted people, but Your eyes are on the haughty to bring them down.

29 For You, O LORD, are my lamp; the LORD lights up my darkness.
