Psalms 139:1-10

Search Me, O God, and Know My Heart

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1 O Lord, you have asearched me and known me!
2You bknow when I sit down and when I rise up;
you cdiscern my thoughts from afar.
3You search out my path and my lying down
and are acquainted with all my ways.
4Even before a word is on my tongue,
behold, O Lord, dyou know it altogether.
5You ehem me in, behind and before,
and flay your hand upon me.
6 gSuch knowledge is htoo wonderful for me;
it is high; I cannot attain it.
7 iWhere shall I go from your Spirit?
Or where jshall I flee from your presence?
8 kIf I ascend to heaven, you are there!
lIf I make my bed in Sheol, you are there!
9If I take the wings of the morning
and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
10even there your hand shall mlead me,
and your right hand shall hold me.
