Psalm 139:1–6

1 You have searched me,f Lord,

and you knowg me.

2 You know when I sit and when I rise;h

you perceive my thoughtsi from afar.

3 You discern my going outj and my lying down;

you are familiar with all my ways.k

4 Before a word is on my tongue

you, Lord, know it completely.l

5 You hem me inm behind and before,

and you lay your hand upon me.

6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,n

too loftyo for me to attain.
