18:16 他從高天伸手抓住我，把我從大水中拉上來。
18:17 他救我脫離我的勁敵和那些恨我的人，因為他們比我強盛。
18:18 我遭遇災難的日子，他們來攻擊我；但耶和華是我的倚靠。
18:19 他又領我到寬闊之處；他救拔我，因他喜悅我。
18:20 耶和華按著我的公義報答我，按著我手中的清潔賞賜我。
18:21 因為我遵守了耶和華的道，未曾作惡離開我的上帝。
18:22 他的一切典章常在我面前；他的律例我也未曾丟棄。
18:23 我在他面前作了完全人；我也保守自己遠離我的罪孽。
18:24 所以，耶和華按我的公義，按我在他眼前手中的清潔償還我。
18:25 慈愛的人，你以慈愛待他；完全的人，你以完全待他。
18:26 清潔的人，你以清潔待他；乖僻的人，你以彎曲待他。
18:27 困苦的百姓，你必拯救；高傲的眼目，你必使他降卑。
18:28 你必點著我的燈；耶和華─我的上帝必照明我的黑暗。
18:29 我藉著你衝入敵軍，藉著我的上帝跳過牆垣。

16 He reached down from on high and took hold of me;
he drew me out of deep waters.
17 He rescued me from my powerful enemy,
from my foes, who were too strong for me.
18 They confronted me in the day of my disaster,
but the Lord was my support.
19 He brought me out into a spacious place;
he rescued me because he delighted in me.

20 The Lord has dealt with me according to my righteousness;
according to the cleanness of my hands he has rewarded me.
21 For I have kept the ways of the Lord;
I am not guilty of turning from my God.
22 All his laws are before me;
I have not turned away from his decrees.
23 I have been blameless before him
and have kept myself from sin.
24 The Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness,
according to the cleanness of my hands in his sight.

25 To the faithful you show yourself faithful,
to the blameless you show yourself blameless,
26 to the pure you show yourself pure,
but to the devious you show yourself shrewd.
27 You save the humble
but bring low those whose eyes are haughty.
28 You, Lord, keep my lamp burning;
my God turns my darkness into light.
29 With your help I can advance against a troop[e];
with my God I can scale a wall.

大衛繼續述說上帝的拯救，而這樣的感受來自於他與上帝有美好的關係！這也告訴我們，遵守上帝的誡命之重要性，讓我們心裡可以篤定的感受到上帝是與我們同在的！
當然，我們之所以有力量來遵行，使因為相信上帝必在基督耶穌裡保守我們，是出於對上帝拯就的感恩，不是想藉此換取上帝的賜福。上帝在我們尚未認識祂以前，他就在基督裡揀選我們，讓基督為我們的罪而死在十字架上！也因為如此，這份關係是上帝主動建立的，不是因為我們開始的。
我們越認識上帝，就會越感受到上帝慈愛，更感受到上帝的慈愛是何等的浩大，一切都是出於上帝的恩典，不是我們努力所得的，我們本是不配，也是不能的！因此，我們要為我們所蒙的拯救來讚美與感謝上帝！
