1To the chief Musician5329, A Psalm4210 of David1732. O LORD3068, thou hast searched2713 me, and known3045 me.

2Thou knowest3045 my downsitting3427 and mine uprising6965, thou understandest995 my thought7454 afar off7350.

3Thou compassest2219 my path734 and my lying down7252, and art acquainted5532 with all my ways1870. compassest: or, winnowest

4For there is not a word4405 in my tongue3956, but, lo, O LORD3068, thou knowest3045 it altogether.

5Thou hast beset6696 me behind268 and before6924, and laid7896 thine hand3709 upon me.

6Such knowledge1847 is too wonderful6383 6383 for me; it is high7682, I cannot3201 attain unto it.

7Whither shall I go3212 from thy spirit7307? or whither shall I flee1272 from thy presence6440?

8If I ascend up5266 into heaven8064, thou art there: if I make my bed3331 in hell7585, behold, thou art there.

9If I take5375 the wings3671 of the morning7837, and dwell7931 in the uttermost parts319 of the sea3220;

10Even there shall thy hand3027 lead5148 me, and thy right hand3225 shall hold270 me.

11If I say559, Surely the darkness2822 shall cover7779 me; even the night3915 shall be light216 about me1157.

12Yea, the darkness2822 hideth2821 not from thee; but the night3915 shineth215 as the day3117: the darkness2825 and the light219 are both alike to thee. hideth: Heb. darkeneth not the darkness and: Heb. as is the darkness, so is the light

13For thou hast possessed7069 my reins3629: thou hast covered5526 me in my mother's517 womb990.

14I will praise3034 thee; for I am fearfully3372 and wonderfully made6395: marvellous6381 are thy works4639; and that my soul5315 knoweth3045 right well3966. right: Heb. greatly

15My substance6108 was not hid3582 from thee, when I was made6213 in secret5643, and curiously wrought7551 in the lowest parts8482 of the earth776. substance: or, strength, or, body

16Thine eyes5869 did see7200 my substance, yet being unperfect1564; and in thy book5612 all my members were written3789, which in continuance3117 were fashioned3335, when as yet there was none259 of them. all: Heb. all of them which: or, what days they should be fashioned

17How precious3365 also are thy thoughts7454 unto me, O God410! how great6105 is the sum7218 of them!

18If I should count5608 them, they are more in number7235 than the sand2344: when I awake6974, I am still5750 with thee.

19Surely thou wilt slay6991 the wicked7563, O God433: depart5493 from me therefore, ye bloody1818 men582.

20For they speak559 against thee wickedly4209, and thine enemies6145 take5375 thy name in vain7723.

21Do not I hate8130 them, O LORD3068, that hate8130 thee? and am not I grieved6962 with those that rise up8618 against thee?

22I hate8130 them with perfect8503 hatred8135: I count them mine enemies341.

23Search2713 me, O God410, and know3045 my heart3824: try974 me, and know3045 my thoughts8312:

24And see7200 if there be any wicked6090 way1870 in me, and lead5148 me in the way1870 everlasting5769. wicked: Heb. way of pain, or, grief
