New International Version NIV
1 Lord, you have seen what is in my heart. You know all about me.
1
You have searched me, LORD, and you know me.
2 You know when I sit down and when I get up. You know what I'm thinking even though you are far away.
2
You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar.
3 You know when I go out to work and when I come back home. You know exactly how I live.
3
You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways.
4 Lord, even before I speak a word, you know all about it.
4
Before a word is on my tongue you, LORD, know it completely.
5 You are all around me. You are behind me and in front of me. You hold me in your power.
5
You hem me in behind and before, and you lay your hand upon me.
6 I'm amazed at how well you know me. It's more than I can understand.
6
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain.
