"Psalm 139"

"O Lord, You have searched me and You know me.
(2)You know when I sit and when I rise;
You perceive my thoughts from afar.
(3)You discern my going out and my lying down;
You are familiar with me in ALL my ways.
(4)Before a word is on my tongue
You know it completely, O Lord.
(5)You hem me in, behind and before;
You have laid Your Hand upon me.
(6)Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
Too lofty for me to attain.

(7)"Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Where can I flee from Your Presence?
(8)If I go up into the Heavens, You are there;
If I make my bed in the depths, You are there;
(9)If I rise on the wings of dawn,
If I settle on the far side of the sea,
(10)Even there Your Hand will guide me,
Your right Hand will hold me fast.

(11) "If I say, 'Surely the darkness will hide me
And the light becomenight around me,'
(12)Even the darkness will not be dark to You;
The night will shine like the day,
For darkness is as light to You.

(13) "For You created my innermost being;
You knit me together in my Mother's womb.
(14) I praise You because I am fearfully
and wonderfully made;
You works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
(15) My frame was not hidden from You
When I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the
Depths of the earth,
(16) Your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
Were written in Your Book
Before one of them came to be.

(17)"How precious to me are Your
thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!
(18)Were I to count them,
They would outnumber the grains of sand.
When I awake,
I am still with You.

(23) .... "Search me, O God,
And know my heart I pray;
Test me and know my anxious thoughts.
(24)See if there be any offensive way
in me(my heart, soul, and mind),
And lead me in Your Way Everlasting."
