Psalm 25:21-22

May integrity and uprightness protect me, because my hope, LORD, is in you. Deliver Israel, O God, from all their troubles!

May integrity 
Genesis 20:4-5  Now Abimelek (king of Gerar) had not gone near her (Sarah), so he said, "Lord, will you destroy an innocent nation? Did he (Abraham) not say to me, 'She is my sister,' and didn't she also say, 'He is my brother'? I have done this with a clear conscience and clean hands."

and uprightness protect me 
1 Kings 9:4-5  "As for you, if you walk before me faithfully with integrity of heart and uprightness, as David your father did, and do all I command and observe my decrees and laws, I will establish your royal throne over Israel forever, as I promised David your father when I said, 'You shall never fail to have a successor on the throne of Israel.' "

because my hope, LORD is in you

Deliver Israel, O God, from all their troubles!
