- O LORD, You have searched me and known me.
- You know when I sit down and when I rise up; You understand my thought from afar.
- You scrutinize my path and my lying down, And are intimately acquainted with all my ways.
- Even before there is a word on my tongue, Behold, O LORD, You know it all.
- You have enclosed me behind and before, And laid Your hand upon me.
|
- O lord, thou hast searched me, and known me.
- Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.
- Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.
- For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.
- Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.
|
- Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; It is too high, I cannot attain to it.
- Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence?
- If I ascend to heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, You are there.
- If I take the wings of the dawn, If I dwell in the remotest part of the sea,
- Even there Your hand will lead me, And Your right hand will lay hold of me.
|
- Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.
- Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
- If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.
- If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
- Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
|
- If I say, "Surely the darkness will overwhelm me, And the light around me will be night,"
- Even the darkness is not dark to You, And the night is as bright as the day Darkness and light are alike to You.
|
- If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.
- Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.
