Verse 26 is found in chapter 22 of 2 Samuel. David speaks of God’s righteousness and of his own conduct before the Lord. The passage should be read within the poetic language of the song rather than as a claim of absolute moral perfection, especially considering the sins narrated earlier. The central idea is that God responds according to his justice and that his ways are blameless. The text also affirms that God’s word has been tested and that he is a shield to those who trust in him.
