UKJV - Psalms - 139

139:1  O lord, you have searched me, and known me.

139:2  You know my sitting down and mine rising up, you understand my thought far off.

139:3  You compass my path and my lying down, and are acquainted with all my ways.

139:4  For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, you know it altogether.

139:5  You have beset me behind and before, and laid your hand upon me.

139:6  Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.

139:7  Where shall I go from your spirit? or where shall I flee from your presence?

139:8  If I ascend up into heaven, you are there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, you are 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 your hand lead me, and your 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 hides not from you; but the night shines as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to you.

139:13  For you have possessed my reins: you have covered me in my mother's womb.

139:14  I will praise you; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are your works; and that my soul knows right well.

139:15  My substance was not hid from you, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the low parts of the earth.

139:16  your eyes did see my substance, yet being imperfect; and in your 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 your 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 you.

139:19  Surely you will slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, all of you bloody men.

139:20  For they speak against you wickedly, and your enemies take your name in vain.

139:21  Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate you? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against you?

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.
