15. He sent out arrows and scattered them;Lightning bolts, and He vanquished them.
16. Then the channels of the sea were seen,The foundations of the world were uncovered,At the rebuke of the Lord,At the blast of the breath of His nostrils.
17. “He sent from above, He took me,He drew me out of many waters.
18. He delivered me from my strong enemy,From those who hated me;For they were too strong for me.
19. They confronted me in the day of my calamity,But the Lord was my support.
20. He also brought me out into a broad place;He delivered me because He delighted in me.
21. “The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness;According to the cleanness of my handsHe has recompensed me.
22. For I have kept the ways of the Lord,And have not wickedly departed from my God.
23. For all His judgments were before me;And as for His statutes, I did not depart from them.
24. I was also blameless before Him,And I kept myself from my iniquity.
25. Therefore the Lord has recompensed me according to my righteousness,According to my cleanness in His eyes.
26. “With 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 with the devious You will show Yourself shrewd.
28. You will save the humble people;But Your eyes are on the haughty, that You may bring them down.
29. “For You are my 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 wall.
31. As for God, His way is perfect;The word of the Lord is proven;He is a shield to all who trust in Him.
