O Jehovah my God, if I have done this: if there is iniquity in my hands;

let the enemy pursue my soul and overtake it; yea, let him trample down my life upon the earth and lay my honor in the dust. Selah.

Jehovah rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands He has given back to me.

For all His judgments were before me, and I did not put away His Statutes from me.

Therefore Jehovah has given back to me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in His eyes.
