To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. O LORDH3068, thou hast searchedH2713 me, and knownH3045 me.
Thou knowestH3045 my downsittingH3427 and mine uprisingH6965, thou understandestH995 my thoughtH7454 afar offH7350.
Thou compassestH2219 my pathH734 and my lying downH7252, and art acquaintedH5532 with all my waysH1870. {compassest: or, winnowest}
For there is not a wordH4405 in my tongueH3956, but, lo, O LORDH3068, thou knowestH3045 it altogether.
Thou hast besetH6696 me behindH268 and beforeH6924, and laidH7896 thine handH3709 upon me.
Such knowledgeH1847 is too wonderfulH6383+H6383 for me; it is highH7682, I cannotH3201 attain unto it.
Whither shall I goH3212 from thy spiritH7307? or whither shall I fleeH1272 from thy presenceH6440?
If I ascend upH5266 into heavenH8064, thou art there: if I make my bedH3331 in hellH7585, behold, thou art there.
If I takeH5375 the wingsH3671 of the morningH7837, and dwellH7931 in the uttermost partsH319 of the seaH3220;
Even there shall thy handH3027 leadH5148 me, and thy right handH3225 shall holdH270 me.
If I sayH559, Surely the darknessH2822 shall coverH7779 me; even the nightH3915 shall be lightH216 about meH1157.
Yea, the darknessH2822 hidethH2821 not from thee; but the nightH3915 shinethH215 as the dayH3117: the darknessH2825 and the lightH219 are both alike to thee. {hideth…: Heb. darkeneth not} {the darkness and…: Heb. as is the darkness, so is the light}
For thou hast possessedH7069 my reinsH3629: thou hast coveredH5526 me in my mother'sH517 wombH990.
I will praiseH3034 thee; for I am fearfullyH3372 and wonderfully madeH6395: marvellousH6381 are thy worksH4639; and that my soulH5315 knowethH3045 right wellH3966. {right…: Heb. greatly}
My substanceH6108 was not hidH3582 from thee, when I was madeH6213 in secretH5643, and curiously wroughtH7551 in the lowest partsH8482 of the earthH776. {substance: or, strength, or, body}
Thine eyesH5869 did seeH7200 my substance, yet being unperfectH1564; and in thy bookH5612 all my members were writtenH3789, which in continuanceH3117 were fashionedH3335, when as yet there was noneH259 of them. {all…: Heb. all of them} {which…: or, what days they should be fashioned}
How preciousH3365 also are thy thoughtsH7454 unto me, O GodH410! how greatH6105 is the sumH7218 of them!
If I should countH5608 them, they are more in numberH7235 than the sandH2344: when I awakeH6974, I am stillH5750 with thee.
Surely thou wilt slayH6991 the wickedH7563, O GodH433: departH5493 from me therefore, ye bloodyH1818 menH582.
For they speakH559 against thee wickedlyH4209, and thine enemiesH6145 takeH5375 thy name in vainH7723.
Do not I hateH8130 them, O LORDH3068, that hateH8130 thee? and am not I grievedH6962 with those that rise upH8618 against thee?
I hateH8130 them with perfectH8503 hatredH8135: I count them mine enemiesH341.
SearchH2713 me, O GodH410, and knowH3045 my heartH3824: tryH974 me, and knowH3045 my thoughtsH8312:
And seeH7200 if there be any wickedH6090 wayH1870 in me, and leadH5148 me in the wayH1870 everlastingH5769. {wicked…: Heb. way of pain, or, grief}

ManyH7227, O LORDH3068 my GodH430, are thy wonderfulH6381 works which thou hast doneH6213, and thy thoughtsH4284 which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in orderH6186 unto thee: if I would declareH5046 and speakH1696 of them, they are moreH6105 than can be numberedH5608. {they cannot…: or, none can order them unto thee}
To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. How long wilt thou forgetH7911 me, O LORDH3068? for everH5331? how long wilt thou hideH5641 thy faceH6440 from me? {chief…: or, overseer}
Canst thou by searchingH2714 find outH4672 GodH433? canst thou findH4672 out the AlmightyH7706 unto perfectionH8503?
It is as highH1363 as heavenH8064; what canst thou doH6466? deeperH6013 than hellH7585; what canst thou knowH3045? {as high…: Heb. the heights of heaven}
The measureH4055 thereof is longerH752 than the earthH776, and broaderH7342 than the seaH3220.
Lo, these are partsH7098 of his waysH1870: but how littleH8102 a portionH1697 is heardH8085 of him? but the thunderH7482 of his powerH1369 who can understandH995?
Who is he that hidethH5956 counselH6098 without knowledgeH1847? therefore have I utteredH5046 that I understoodH995 not; things too wonderfulH6381 for me, which I knewH3045 not.
Surely I am more brutishH1198 than any manH376, and have not the understandingH998 of a manH120.
I neither learnedH3925 wisdomH2451, nor haveH3045 the knowledgeH1847 of the holyH6918. {have: Heb. know}
Who hath ascended upH5927 into heavenH8064, or descendedH3381? who hath gatheredH622 the windH7307 in his fistsH2651? who hath boundH6887 the watersH4325 in a garmentH8071? who hath establishedH6965 all the endsH657 of the earthH776? what is his nameH8034, and what is his son'sH1121 nameH8034, if thou canst tellH3045?
