Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
| 139:1 | To the chief musician. A Psalm of David. O Jehovah, You have searched me and known me . |
| 139:2 | You know my sitting down, and my rising up; You understand my thought from afar off. |
| 139:3 | You sift my path and my lying down, and are acquainted with all my ways. |
| 139:4 | For not a word is on my tongue, but, lo, O Jehovah, You know it all. |
| 139:5 | You have closed me in behind, and in front, and Your hand is laid on me. |
| 139:6 | Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is set on high; I am not able to reach it. |
| 139:7 | Where shall I go from Your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from Your face? |
| 139:8 | If I go up to Heaven, You are there; if I make my bed in Sheol, behold, You are there ! |
| 139:9 | If I take the wings of the morning, dwelling in the uttermost part of the sea, |
| 139:10 | even there Your hand shall lead me; and Your right hand shall seize me. |
| 139:11 | If I say: Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light around me. |
| 139:12 | Even the darkness will not be dark from You, but the night shines as the day; as is the darkness, so is the light. |
| 139:13 | For You have possessed my inward parts; You wove me in the womb of my mother. |
| 139:14 | I will thank You, for with fearful things I am wonderful; Your works are marvelous, and my soul knows it very well. |
| 139:15 | My bones were not hidden from You when I was made in secret; when I was woven in the depths of the earth. |
| 139:16 | Your eyes saw my embryo; and in Your book all my members were written the days they were formed, and not one was among them. |
| 139:17 | And how precious are Your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them! |
| 139:18 | If I should count them, they are more than the sand; when I awake I am still with You. |
| 139:19 | Surely You will slay the wicked, O God; and bloody men, depart from me. |
| 139:20 | Who will maliciously speak against You? Your enemies are lifted up with vanity. |
| 139:21 | O Jehovah, do not I hate those hating You? And am I not detesting those rising against You? |
| 139:22 | I hate them with a perfect hatred; they have become my enemies. |
| 139:23 | Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me, and know my thoughts; |
| 139:24 | and see if any wicked way is in me; and lead me in the way everlasting. |
