25 Therefore the Lord hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight.
25 And the Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness in his sight.
25 God rewrote the text of my life when I opened the book of my heart to his eyes.
25 Therefore the Lord has recompensed me according to my righteousness, According to my cleanness in His eyes.
25 The Lord rewarded me for doing right. He has seen my innocence.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on 2 Samuel 22:25
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.
