Psalms - Chapter: 139
139:1 | O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me. |
139:2 | Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. |
139:3 | Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. |
139:4 | For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether. |
139:5 | Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me. |
139:6 | Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it. |
139:7 | Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? |
139:8 | If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. |
139:9 | If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; |
139:10 | Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. |
139:11 | If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me. |
139:12 | Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee. |
139:13 | For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb. |
139:14 | I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. |
139:15 | My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. |
139:16 | Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. |
139:17 | How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them! |
139:18 | If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee. |
139:19 | Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men. |
139:20 | For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy name in vain. |
139:21 | Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? |
139:22 | I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies. |
139:23 | Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: |
139:24 | And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. |
139:1 | To him that excelleth. A Psalme of David. O Lord, thou hast tried me and knowen me. |
139:2 | Thou knowest my sitting and my rising: thou vnderstandest my thought afarre off. |
139:3 | Thou compassest my pathes, and my lying downe, and art accustomed to all my wayes. |
139:4 | For there is not a word in my tongue, but loe, thou knowest it wholy, O Lord. |
139:5 | Thou holdest mee straite behinde and before, and layest thine hand vpon me. |
139:6 | Thy knowledge is too wonderfull for mee: it is so high that I cannot attaine vnto it. |
139:7 | Whither shall I goe from thy Spirite? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? |
139:8 | If I ascende into heauen, thou art there: if I lye downe in hell, thou art there. |
139:9 | Let mee take the winges of the morning, and dwell in the vttermost parts of the sea: |
139:10 | Yet thither shall thine hand leade me, and thy right hand holde me. |
139:11 | If I say, Yet the darkenes shall hide me, euen the night shalbe light about me. |
139:12 | Yea, the darkenes hideth not from thee: but the night shineth as the day: the darkenes and light are both alike. |
139:13 | For thou hast possessed my reines: thou hast couered me in my mothers wombe. |
139:14 | I will praise thee, for I am fearefully and wonderously made: marueilous are thy workes, and my soule knoweth it well. |
139:15 | My bones are not hid from thee, though I was made in a secret place, and facioned beneath in the earth. |
139:16 | Thine eyes did see me, when I was without forme: for in thy booke were all things written, which in continuance were facioned, when there was none of them before. |
139:17 | Howe deare therefore are thy thoughtes vnto me, O God! how great is ye summe of them! |
139:18 | If I should count them, they are moe then the sand: when I wake, I am still with thee. |
139:19 | Oh that thou wouldest slay, O God, the wicked and bloody men, to whom I say, Depart ye from mee: |
139:20 | Which speake wickedly of thee, and being thine enemies are lifted vp in vaine. |
139:21 | Doe not I hate them, O Lord, that hate thee? and doe not I earnestly contend with those that rise vp against thee? |
139:22 | I hate them with an vnfained hatred, as they were mine vtter enemies. |
139:23 | Try mee, O God, and knowe mine heart: prooue me and know my thoughtes, |
139:24 | And consider if there be any way of wickednes in me, and leade me in the way for euer. |
