Psalms 139:6-16
6Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain.
7Where can I go to escape Your Spirit?Where can I flee from Your presence?8If I ascend to the heavens, You are there;if I make my bed in Sheol, You are there.9If I rise on the wings of the dawn,if I settle by the farthest sea,10even there Your hand will guide me;Your right hand will hold me fast.11If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me,and the light become night around me”—12even the darkness is not dark to You,but the night shines like the day,for darkness is as light to You.
13For You formed my inmost being;1You knit me together in my mother’s womb.14I praise You,for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.Marvelous are Your works,and I know this very well.15My frame was not hidden from Youwhen I was made in secret,when I was woven togetherin the depths of the earth.16Your eyes saw my unformed body;all my days were written in Your bookand ordained for mebefore one of them came to be.
