Verse 20

Psalm 18:20

First … in the original language – Hebrew:
יגמלני יהוה כצדקי כבר ידי ישׁיב לי׃

Next, the English translation that I chose making the Psalm “mine”:

The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness (my conscious integrity and sincerity with Him); (amp)

He blesses and restores me because I am innocent. (gnb & nlt)
