\s5
|

\c 139
|
||
\d For the chief musician. A psalm of David.
|
||
\p
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 1 Yahweh, you have examined me, and you know me.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 2 You know when I sit down and when I get up;
|
||
\q you understand my thoughts from far away.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 3 You observe my path and when I lie down;
|
||
\q you are familiar with all my ways.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 4 For there is not a word I speak
|
||
\q that you do not know completely, Yahweh.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 5 Behind and before you surround me
|
||
\q and rest your hand upon me.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 6 Such knowledge is too much for me;
|
||
\q it is too high, and I cannot understand it.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 7 Where can I go to escape from your Spirit?
|
||
\q Where can I flee from your presence?
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 8 If I ascend up to the heavens, you are there;
|
||
\q if I make my bed in sheol, see, you are there.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 9 If I fly away on the wings of the morning
|
||
\q and go to live in the uttermost parts across the sea,
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 10 even there your hand will lead me,
|
||
\q and your right hand will hold onto me.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 11 If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me,
|
||
\q and the night will be my light;"
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 12 even the darkness will not hide from you.
|
||
\q The night shines like the day,
|
||
\q for the darkness and the light are both alike to you.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 13 You formed my inner being;
|
||
\q you formed me in my mother’s womb.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 14 I will give you thanks,
|
||
\q for your deeds are awesome and wonderful.
|
||
\q You know my life very well.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 15 My body was not hidden from you
|
||
\q when I was made in private,
|
||
\q when I was intricately made in the depths of the earth.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 16 You saw me inside the womb;
|
||
\q all the days ordained for me were recorded
|
||
\q in your book even before the first one happened.
|
||
\q
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 17 How precious are your thoughts to me, God!
|
||
\q How vast is their sum!
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 18 If I tried to count them, they would be more in number than the sand.
|
||
\q When I awake, I am still with you.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 19 If only you would kill the wicked, God;
|
||
\q get away from me, you violent men.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 20 They rebel against you and act deceitfully;
|
||
\q your enemies lie.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 21 Do I not hate those, Yahweh, who hate you?
|
||
\q Do I not despise those who rise up against you?
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 22 I hate them completely;
|
||
\q they have become my enemies.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 23 Examine me, God, and know my heart;
|
||
\q test me and know my thoughts.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 24 See if there is any wicked way in me,
|
||
\q and lead me in the way everlasting.
