14. He sent out His arrows, and scattered them, And lightning flashes in abundance, and routed them.
15. Then the channels of water appeared, And the foundations of the world were laid bare At Your rebuke, O Lord, At the blast of the breath of Your nostrils.
16. He sent from on high, He took me; He drew me out of many waters.
17. He delivered me from my strong enemy, And from those who hated me, for they were too mighty for me.
18. They confronted me in the day of my calamity, But the Lord was my stay.
19. He brought me forth also into a broad place; He rescued me, because He delighted in me.
20. The Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness; According to the cleanness of my hands He has recompensed me.
21. For I have kept the ways of the Lord, And have not wickedly departed from my God.
22. For all His ordinances were before me, And I did not put away His statutes from me.
23. I was also blameless with Him, And I kept myself from my iniquity.
24. Therefore the Lord has recompensed me according to my righteousness, According to the cleanness of my hands in His eyes.
25. With the kind You show Yourself kind; With the blameless You show Yourself blameless;
26. With the pure You show Yourself pure, And with the crooked You show Yourself astute.
27. For You save an afflicted people, But haughty eyes You abase.
28. For You light my lamp; The Lord my God illumines my darkness.
