et opera manuum ejus annuntiat firmamentum.
Dies diei eructat verbum,
et nox nocti indicat scientiam.
Non sunt loquelæ, neque sermones,
quorum non audiantur voces eorum.
In omnem terram exivit sonus eorum,
et in fines orbis terræ verba eorum.
In sole posuit tabernaculum suum;
et ipse tamquam sponsus procedens de thalamo suo.
Exsultavit ut gigas ad currendam viam;
a summo cælo egressio ejus.
Et occursus ejus usque ad summum ejus;
nec est qui se abscondat a calore ejus.
Lex Domini immaculata, convertens animas;
testimonium Domini fidele, sapientiam præstans parvulis.
Justitiæ Domini rectæ, lætificantes corda;
præceptum Domini lucidum, illuminans oculos.
Timor Domini sanctus, permanens in sæculum sæculi;
judicia Domini vera, justificata in semetipsa,
desiderabilia super aurum et lapidem pretiosum multum,
et dulciora super mel et favum.
Etenim servus tuus custodit ea;
in custodiendis illis retributio multa.
Delicta quis intelligit?
ab occultis meis munda me;
et ab alienis parce servo tuo.
Si mei non fuerint dominati, tunc immaculatus ero,
et emundabor a delicto maximo.
Et erunt ut complaceant eloquia oris mei,
et meditatio cordis mei in conspectu tuo semper.
Domine, adjutor meus, et redemptor meus.]

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Therefore hath the Lord recompensed me according to my righteousness,.... Having proved and supported this proposition by the above reasons, it is repeated, for confirmation's sake;

according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight; this phrase, "in his eyesight", is here added, to show that the righteousness of Christ was clean, pure, and spotless in the sight of God; in the eye of divine justice: hence those that are clothed with it are holy and unblamable, and irreprovable in his sight, Colossians 1:22.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Therefore hath the Lord recompensed me - By delivering me from my enemies. The divine interpositions in his behalf had been of the nature of a reward or recompense.

According to my righteousness - As if I were righteous; or, his acts of intervention have been such as are appropriate to a righteous life. The psalmist does not say that it was on account of his righteousness as if he had merited the favor of God, but that the interpositions in his behalf had been such as to show that God regarded him as righteous.

According to the cleanness of my hands - See the note at Psalms 18:20.

In his eyesight - Margin, as in Hebrew, before his eyes. The idea is that God saw that he was upright.
