2 Samuel 22:27

²⁵ Therefore the LORD hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight.

²⁶ With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful, and with the upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright.

With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself unsavoury.

²⁸ And the afflicted people thou wilt save: but thine eyes are upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down.

²⁹ For thou art my lamp, O LORD: and the LORD will lighten my darkness.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
