To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. O LORD, thou hast searched me and known me! |
2
|
Thou knowest when I sit down and when I rise up; thou discernest my thoughts from afar. |
3
|
Thou searchest out my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. |
4
|
Even before a word is on my tongue, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether. |
5
|
Thou dost beset me behind and before, and layest thy hand upon me. |
6
|
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain it. |
7
|
Whither shall I go from thy Spirit? Or whither shall I flee from thy presence? |
8
|
If I ascend to heaven, thou art there! If I make my bed in Sheol, thou art there! |
9
|
If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, |
10
|
even there thy hand shall lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. |
11
|
If I say, "Let only darkness cover me, and the light about me be night," |
12
|
even the darkness is not dark to thee, the night is bright as the day; for darkness is as light with thee. |
13
|
For thou didst form my inward parts, thou didst knit me together in my mother's womb. |
14
|
I praise thee, for thou art fearful and wonderful. Wonderful are thy works! Thou knowest me right well; |
15
|
my frame was not hidden from thee, when I was being made in secret, intricately wrought in the depths of the earth. |
16
|
Thy eyes beheld my unformed substance; in thy book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them. |
17
|
How precious to me are thy thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them! |
18
|
If I would count them, they are more than the sand. When I awake, I am still with thee. |
19
|
O that thou wouldst slay the wicked, O God, and that men of blood would depart from me, |
20
|
men who maliciously defy thee, who lift themselves up against thee for evil! |
21
|
Do I not hate them that hate thee, O LORD? And do I not loathe them that rise up against thee? |
22
|
I hate them with perfect hatred; I count them my enemies. |
23
|
Search me, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts! |
24
|
And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting! |
