| Psalms 139: (YLT) |
| 1) To the Overseer. -- A Psalm by David. Jehovah, Thou hast searched me, and knowest. |
| 2) Thou -- Thou hast known my sitting down, And my rising up, Thou hast attended to my thoughts from afar. |
| 3) My path and my couch Thou hast fanned, And [with] all my ways hast been acquainted. |
| 4) For there is not a word in my tongue, Lo, O Jehovah, Thou hast known it all! |
| 5) Behind and before Thou hast besieged me, And Thou dost place on me Thy hand. |
| 6) Knowledge too wonderful for me, It hath been set on high, I am not able for it. |
| 7) Whither do I go from Thy Spirit? And whither from Thy face do I flee? |
| 8) If I ascend the heavens -- there Thou [art], And spread out a couch in Sheol, lo, Thee! |
| 9) I take the wings of morning, I dwell in the uttermost part of the sea, |
| 10) Also there Thy hand doth lead me, And Thy right hand doth hold me. |
| 11) And I say, 'Surely darkness bruiseth me, Then night [is] light to me. |
| 12) Also darkness hideth not from Thee, And night as day shineth, as [is] darkness so [is] light. |
| 13) For Thou -- Thou hast possessed my reins, Thou dost cover me in my mother's belly. |
| 14) I confess Thee, because that [with] wonders I have been distinguished. Wonderful [are] Thy works, And my soul is knowing [it] well. |
| 15) My substance was not hid from Thee, When I was made in secret, Curiously wrought in the lower part of earth. |
| 16) Mine unformed substance Thine eyes saw, And on Thy book all of them are written, The days they were formed -- And not one among them. |
| 17) And to me how precious have been Thy thoughts, O God, how great hath been their sum! |
| 18) I recount them! than the sand they are more, I have waked, and I am still with Thee. |
| 19) Dost Thou slay, O God, the wicked? Then, men of blood, turn aside from me! |
| 20) Who exchange Thee for wickedness, Lifted up to vanity [are] Thine enemies. |
| 21) Do not I hate, Jehovah, those hating Thee? And with Thy withstanders grieve myself? |
| 22) [With] perfect hatred I have hated them, Enemies they have become to me. |
| 23) Search me, O God, and know my heart, Try me, and know my thoughts, |
| 24) And see if a grievous way be in me, And lead me in a way age-during! |
