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}

To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. O LORDH3068, thou hast searchedH2713 me, and knownH3045 me.
And thou shalt rememberH2142 all the wayH1870 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 ledH3212 thee these fortyH705 yearsH8141 in the wildernessH4057, to humbleH6031 thee, and to proveH5254 thee, to knowH3045 what was in thine heartH3824, whether thou wouldest keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687, or no.
Who fedH398 thee in the wildernessH4057 with mannaH4478, which thy fathersH1 knewH3045 not, that he might humbleH6031 thee, and that he might proveH5254 thee, to do thee goodH3190 at thy latter endH319;
Let me be weighedH8254 in an evenH6664 balanceH3976, that GodH433 may knowH3045 mine integrityH8538. {Let…: Heb. Let him weigh me in balances of justice}
The fining potH4715 is for silverH3701, and the furnaceH3564 for goldH2091: but the LORDH3068 triethH974 the heartsH3826.
And I will bringH935 the third partH7992 through the fireH784, and will refineH6884 them as silverH3701 is refinedH6884, and will tryH974 them as goldH2091 is triedH974: they shall callH7121 on my nameH8034, and I will hearH6030 them: I will sayH559, It is my peopleH5971: and they shall sayH559, The LORDH3068 is my GodH430.
But who may abideH3557 the dayH3117 of his comingH935? and who shall standH5975 when he appearethH7200? for he is like a refiner'sH6884 fireH784, and like fullers'H3526 soapH1287:
And he shall sitH3427 as a refinerH6884 and purifierH2891 of silverH3701: and he shall purifyH2891 the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878, and purgeH2212 them as goldH2091 and silverH3701, that they may offerH5066 unto the LORDH3068 an offeringH4503 in righteousnessH6666.
