20 He took me out into a wide place; he was my saviour because he had delight in me.
21 The Lord gives me the reward of my righteousness, because my hands are clean before him.
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;
