1  O Lord, you have psearched me and known me!

2  You qknow when I sit down and when I rise up;

you rdiscern 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, syou know it altogether.

5  You them me in, behind and before,

and ulay your hand upon me.

6  vSuch knowledge is wtoo wonderful for me;

it is high; I cannot attain it.

7  xWhere shall I go from your Spirit?

Or where yshall I flee from your presence?

8  zIf I ascend to heaven, you are there!

aIf I make my bed in Sheol, you are there!

9  If I take the wings of the morning

and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,

10  even there your hand shall blead me,

and your right hand shall hold me.

11  If I say, c“Surely the darkness shall cover me,

and the light about me be night,”

12  deven the darkness is not dark to you;

the night is bright as the day,

for darkness is as light with you.

13  For you eformed my inward parts;

you fknitted me together in my mother’s womb.

14  I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.1

gWonderful are your works;

my soul knows it very well.
