18 He made me free from my strong hater, and from those who were against me, because they were stronger than I.
19 They came on me in the day of my trouble; but the Lord was my support.
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.
