Psalms 139:1-4

Search Me, O God, and Know My Heart

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1 O Lord, you have ^dsearched me and known me!
2 You ^eknow when I sit down and when I rise up;
you ^fdiscern my thoughts from afar.
3 You search out my path and my lying down
and are acquainted with all my ways.
4 Even before a word is on my tongue,
behold, O Lord, ^gyou know it altogether.

Isaiah 50:5

5 ^hThe Lord God has opened my ear,
ⁱand I was not rebellious;
I turned not backward.

Jeremiah 6:10

10 ^jTo whom shall I speak and give warning,
that they may hear?
^kBehold, their ears are uncircumcised,
^lthey cannot listen;
behold, ^mthe word of the Lord is to them an object of scorn;
they take no pleasure in it.
