Psalms 139:3-13

DBY

NIV

3 Thou searchest out my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways;
3 You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways.
4 For there is not yet a word on my tongue, [but] lo, O Jehovah, thou knowest it altogether.
4 Before a word is on my tongue you, LORD, know it completely.
5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thy hand upon me.
5 You hem me in behind and before, and you lay your hand upon me.
6 O knowledge too wonderful for me! it is high, I cannot [attain] unto it.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain.
7 Whither shall I go from thy Spirit? and whither flee from thy presence?
7 Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?
8 If I ascend up into the heavens thou art there; or if I make my bed in Sheol, behold, thou [art there];
8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
9 [If] I take the wings of the dawn [and] dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea,
10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
10 even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.
11 And if I say, Surely darkness shall cover me, and the light about me be night;
11 If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,”
12 Even darkness hideth not from thee, and the night shineth as the day: the darkness is as the light.
12 even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you.
13 For thou hast possessed my reins; thou didst cover me in my mother's womb.
13 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
