Psalms 139:1-10

1Lord, you look deep inside me, and you know all about me.

2You know when I sit down, and you know when I get up. Even when you are far away, you understand what I am thinking about.

3You see me when I go out, and you see me when I stay at home. You know everything that I do!

4Yes Lord, before I open my mouth to speak, you know what I will say.

5You are all around me, in front of me and behind me. You put your hand on me to help me.

6You know so much about me, it is wonderful. I cannot understand it. My thoughts cannot reach as high as that!

7Is there anywhere that I can go to run away from your Spirit? Anywhere that I go, you are already there!

8If I go up to heaven, you would be there. If I dig deep down into the ground to reach Sheol, you would be there too.

9If I fly away to where the sun rises in the east, or to the other side of the sea in the west, you would be there.

10You would use your hand to lead me. Your strong right hand would keep me safe.
