12
Even the darkness does not hide from thee; but the night shines as the day; the darkness is as the light.
13
For thou hast possessed my kidneys: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.
14
I will praise thee; for I am fearfully
and wonderfully made; marvellous
are thy works, and
that, my soul knows right well.
15
My body was not hid from thee, even though
I was made in secret
and brought together in the lowest parts of the earth.
16
Thine eyes did see my substance yet being imperfect; and in thy book all
my members were written,
which were then formed, without
lacking one of them.
17
Therefore, how precious are thy thoughts unto me, O God! How great is the sum of them!
18
If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand; when I awake, I am still with thee.
19
Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God; depart from me therefore, ye bloodthirsty men.
20
For they speak against thee wickedly,
and thine enemies take
thy name in vain.
21
Do I not hate
all those, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?
22
I hate them with perfect hatred; I count them mine enemies.
