21  “The Lord dealt with me ^waccording to my righteousness;

according to the cleanness of my hands he rewarded me.

22  For I have kept the ways of the Lord

and have not wickedly departed from my God.

23  For all his rules were before me,

and from his statutes I did not turn aside.

24  I was blameless before him,

and I kept myself from guilt.

25  And the Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness,

according to my cleanness in his sight.
