22 For I have kept the ways of the Lord, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
22 For I have kept the ways of the Lord; I am not guilty of turning from my God.
22 For I have kept the ways of the Lord and have not wickedly departed from my God.
22 Indeed, I've kept alert to God's ways; I haven't taken God for granted.
22 For I have kept the ways of the Lord, And have not wickedly departed from my God.
22 For I have kept the ways of the Lord ; I have not turned from my God to follow evil.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on 2 Samuel 22:22
Chapter Contents
David's psalm of thanksgiving.
This chapter is a psalm of praise; we find it afterwards nearly as 2 Timothy 4:18. Those who receive signal mercies from God, ought to give him the glory. In the day that God delivered David, he sang this song. While the mercy is fresh, and we are most affected with it, let the thank-offering be brought, to be kindled with the fire of that affection. All his joys and hopes close, as all our hopes should do, in the great Redeemer.
