ASV - Psalms - 139

139:1  O Jehovah, thou hast searched me, and knownme.

139:2  Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising; Thou understandest my thought afar off.

139:3  Thou searchest out 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 Jehovah, thou knowest it altogether.

139:5  Thou hast beset me behind and before, And laid thy hand upon me.

139:6  Suchknowledge 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 Sheol, 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 overwhelm me, And the light about me shall be night;

139:12  Even the darkness hideth not from thee, But the night shineth as the day: The darkness and the light are both aliketo thee.

139:13  For thou didst form my inward parts: Thou didst cover me in my mother’s womb.

139:14  I will give thanks unto thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: Wonderful are thy works; And that my soul knoweth right well.

139:15  My frame was not hidden from thee, When I was made in secret, And curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

139:16  Thine eyes did see mine unformed substance; And in thy book they were all written, Eventhe days that were ordainedfor me, 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 bloodthirsty 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 Jehovah, that hate thee? And am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?

139:22  I hate them with perfect hatred: They are become 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.
