Psalms 139:1-12

1 O LORD , You have searched me and known me.

1 You have searched me, LORD, and you know me.

2 You know when I sit down and when I rise up; You understand my thought from afar.

2 You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar.

3 You scrutinize my path and my lying down, And are intimately acquainted with all my ways.

3 You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways.

4 Even before there is a word on my tongue, Behold, O LORD , You know it all.

4 Before a word is on my tongue you, LORD, know it completely.

5 You have enclosed me behind and before, And laid Your hand upon me.

5 You hem me in behind and before, and you lay your hand upon me.

6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; It is too high, I cannot attain to it.

6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain.

7 Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence?

7 Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?

8 If I ascend to heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, You are 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, If I dwell in the remotest part 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 Your hand will lead me, And Your right hand will lay hold of me.

10 even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.

11 If I say, "Surely the darkness will overwhelm me, And the light around me will be night,"

11 If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,”

12 Even the darkness is not dark to You, And the night is as bright as the day. Darkness and light are alike to You.

12 even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you.
