Psalms 139:1-16

1O LORDH3068, You have searched meH2713and known meH3045.2YouH859 knowH3045 when I sitH3427 and when I riseH6965;You understandH995 my thoughtsH7454 from afarH7350.3You search outH2219 my pathH732 and my lying downH7252;You are awareH5532 of allH3605 my waysH1870.4EvenH3588 H369 before a wordH4405 is on my tongueH3956 H2005,You knowH3045 all about itH3605, O LORDH3068.5You hem me inH6696 behindH268 and beforeH6924;You have laidH7896 Your handH3709 upon meH5921.6Such knowledgeH1847 is too wonderfulH6383 for meH4480,too loftyH7682 for me to attainH3201.

7WhereH575 can I goH1980 to escape Your SpiritH7307?WhereH575 can I fleeH1272 from Your presenceH6440?8IfH518 I ascendH5266 to the heavensH8064, YouH859 are thereH8033;if I make my bedH3331 in SheolH7585, You are thereH2005.9If I rise onH5375 the wingsH3671 of the dawnH7837,if I settleH7931 by the farthestH319 seaH3220,10evenH1571 thereH8033 Your handH3027 will guide meH5148;Your right handH3225 will hold me fastH270.11If I sayH559, “SurelyH389 the darknessH2822 will hide meH7779,and the lightH216 become nightH3915 around meH1157”—12evenH1571 the darknessH2822 is notH3808 darkH2821 to YouH4480,but the nightH3915 shinesH215 like the dayH3117,for darknessH2825 is as light to YouH219.

13ForH3588 YouH859 formedH7069 my inmost beingH3629;1You knit me togetherH5526 in my mother’sH517 wombH990.14I praiseH3034 YouH5921,forH3588 I am fearfullyH3372 and wonderfully madeH6395.MarvelousH6381 are Your worksH4639,and IH5315 know thisH3045 very wellH3966.15My frameH6108 was notH3808 hiddenH3582 from YouH4480whenH834 I was madeH6213 in secretH5643,when I was woven togetherH7551in the depthsH8482 of the earthH776.16Your eyesH5869 sawH7200 my unformed bodyH1564;allH3605 my daysH3117 were writtenH3789 inH5921 Your bookH5612and ordained for meH3335 H3808before one of them came to beH259.
