You Show Yourself (When Life is Filthy)

YOU  SHOW  YOURSELF

Psalm 18:25-26, various translations

YAHUAH! The good people taste Your goodness

YAHUAH! The whole people taste Your health

YAHUAH! The true people taste Your truth

The bad ones can not figure You out

For You show Yourself within and out-loud

YAHUAH, with the holy man, You will be holy

With the innocent man, You will be innocent

With the excellent man, You will be excellent

And with the perverse, You’ll show frowardness

You deal faithfully with the faithful

Who has integrity, to him You show integrity

Yes, You are pure toward the pure man

But toward the crooked, You are tricky

YAHUAH! The good people taste Your goodness

YAHUAH! The whole people taste Your health

YAHUAH! The true people taste Your truth

The bad ones can not figure You out

For You show Yourself within and out-loud

YAH, with all who are sincere, You are sincere

With all who are kind, You show Yourself kind

With all who are loyal, You show Yourself loyal

But You treat the unfaithful as their deeds deserve

With the merciful, You’ll show Yourself merciful

With a blameless, You’ll show Yourself blameless

With the pure You will show Yourself pure; 

And with the devious You’ll show Yourself shrewd

YAHUAH! The good people taste Your goodness

YAHUAH! The whole people taste Your health

YAHUAH! The true people taste Your truth

The bad ones can not figure You out

For You show Yourself within and out-loud

With the perfect man, You’ll show Yourself perfect

YAHUAH, You are good to those who are upright

You prove to be reliable to one who’s blameless

But you prove to be deceptive to one who is perverse

To the trustworthy, You show Yourself trustworthy

To the honest man, You are honest

But hostile to those who are wicked

And with the crooked, You’ll show Yourself astute

YAHUAH! The good people taste Your goodness

YAHUAH! The whole people taste Your health

YAHUAH! The true people taste Your truth

The bad ones can not figure You out

For You show Yourself within and out-loud

1.25

PSALM   18  (KJV)

²⁵ With the merciful Thou wilt shew Thyself merciful, YAHUAH; with an upright man Thou wilt shew Thyself upright;

²⁶ With the pure Thou wilt shew Thyself pure; and with the froward Thou wilt shew Thyself froward.
