Psa.|139:Title|-|To the choir director. |a|Of David. A Psalm
Psa.|139:1|-|O Jehovah, You have |1a|searched me and |b|known me.
Psa.|139:2|-|You know when I |a|sit down and when I rise up;You understand my thoughts from afar.
Psa.|139:3|-|You thoroughly |a|search my path and my lying down,And You are acquainted with all my ways.
Psa.|139:4|-|For a word is not yet on my tongue,And already You, O Jehovah, know it completely.
Psa.|139:5|-|You have closed in on me behind and beforeAnd have laid Your hand on me.
Psa.|139:6|-|Oh, knowledge too wonderful for me!It is so high; I cannot attain to it.
Psa.|139:7|-|Where shall I go, away from Your Spirit,And where shall I flee |a|from Your presence?
Psa.|139:8|-|If I ascend into |a|heaven, You are there;If I make my bed in Sheol, there You are.
Psa.|139:9|-|If I take the wings of the dawnAnd settle at the limits of the sea,
Psa.|139:10|-|There also Your hand will |a|lead me,And Your right hand will take hold of me.
Psa.|139:11|-|And if I say, Surely darkness will cover me,And the light around me will be night;
Psa.|139:12|-|Even the |a|darkness is not dark to You,And night shines like day;
The darkness is like the light.
Psa.|139:13|-|For it was You who |a|formed my inward parts;You wove me together in my mother’s womb.
Psa.|139:14|-|I will praise You, for I am awesomely and wonderfully made;Your |a|works are wonderful,
And my soul knows it well.
Psa.|139:15|-|My frame was not hidden from YouWhen I was made in secret,
|a|Skillfully fashioned in the depths of the earth.
Psa.|139:16|-|Your eyes saw my unformed substance;And in Your book all of them were written:
The days that were ordained for me,When not one of them was yet.
Psa.|139:17|-|And how precious are Your |a|thoughts to me, O God!How great is the sum of them!
Psa.|139:18|-|If I should count them, they would be more than the sand.When I awake, I am still with You.
Psa.|139:19|-|Oh that You, O God, would |1|slay the wicked—Depart from me therefore, you men of bloodshed—
Psa.|139:20|-|Those who speak of You with evil intent,Who as Your enemies take Your name in vain.
Psa.|139:21|-|Do I not hate those who hate You, O Jehovah?And do I not loathe those who rise up against You?
Psa.|139:22|-|I hate them with a perfect hatred;They have become my own enemies.
Psa.|139:23|-||a|Search me, O God, and know my heart;Try me, and know my anxious thoughts;
Psa.|139:24|-|And see if there is some |1|harmful way in me,And lead me on the eternal way.
